Publisher's description of iSpellWell
From Voelker Software:iSpellWell is an innovative new software product that helps children master spelling. It includes 65 lessons for grades 1-5 and nearly 1000 words and sentences. Additional lessons can be added easily by typing them in yourself or downloading them from the Internet. The foundation of iSpellWell is an intuitive testing interface that focuses on the individual child's performance. The more trouble a child has with a particular word, the more the child is required to practice that word. iSpellWell is designed to work with a students' weekly spelling lessons. It uses state-of-the-art speech-to-text technology and Microsoft's Agent Interface to provide a personal learning experience for children. Little animated characters call children by their first name and utter encouragement throughout the learning process. Although iSpellWell is a great product for individual students, it was designed to take advantage of the relationships between schools, students and parents. iSpellWell is founded on the idea that spelling lessons should be shared between schools, teachers and students. Custom spelling lessons are easily created and shared between users making it a perfect software solution for schools and teachers. Groups of lessons can be exported to a single file that can be sent to other users for use on their computer. Because a single file is used to store a series of lessons, it can be sent via diskette, e-mail or other network communication. Lessons can even be shared over the Internet.

This software version | All versions -
Version: iSpellWell 2001.1
Pros: This is a very good software for helping kids with their spelling. You can build your own set of words for practice and therefore there is no limit to what your child can practice on.
Cons: Unfortunately the speech quality is very poor. I bought it about one year now and was hoping an improved version would have been released by now but that has not been the case. My only disappointment is with the speech quality.
