Et program som etterlyses i norske skoler som bruker Skolelinux er lindys og lingright fra <URL: http://lingit.no/ >. S=E5 vidt jeg har forst=E5tt, er lindys en utvidelse til MS Office/LibreOffice som gir forslag i en liten rute p=E5 skjermen mens en skriver, og tilbyr opplesing av teksten (talesyntese) n=E5r den er ferdig skrevet. Lingright er tilsvarende men for engelsk spr=E5k. Finnes det noen gode fri programvarel=F8sninger som kan brukes i stedet? Mens jeg lette fant jeg artikkelen "Open Source Technologies for Dyslexic Pupils" av Francesco DI CERBO, Gabriella DODERO and Paolo LORENZI, <URL: http://person.hst.aau.dk/ska/MIE2009/papers/MIE2009p0941.pdf > som konkluderer 5. Future Experiences and Conclusions The application domain, represented by aids for disabled people, seems to be especially suited for the Open Source paradigm, since the need for application adaptation to actual degree of disability is best satisfied by Open Source software. In practice, this has seldom occurred till now, probably for lack of awareness about the existence of valuable Open Source disability aids. Our experience has shown that existing text-to-speech Open Source tools may represent good disability aids. Of course, proprietary software aids exist as well, with comparable or higher quality in the synthesized voices. However, the quality of an Open Source solution is already sufficient for many users. The existence of speech synthesis Open Source software does not mean that it is trivial to run it, and that our installation shall represent a solution for all problems of dyslexic pupils. For Linux installations, care must be taken to configure the system in the appropriate way, and to choose carefully a distribution. To assist in this process, we experienced the interaction with developers and users communities, who gave useful feedbacks on how to solve configuration and interoperability problems, and how to modify or extend the available code. The contribution of teachers shall be crucial for a successful integration of the disabled student in the classroom. For this reason, teachers have been involved from the beginning of the project, to derive our requirements. They are now going to apply the educational approaches, making use of our package, and will evaluate the contribution of the produced software package in their classrooms. Det f=E5r meg til =E5 tro at det allerede finnes gode l=F8sninger som enten allerede finnes i Debian og Skolelinux, eller som kan tas med i Debian og Skolelinux. Noen her med erfaringer =E5 dele? -- = Vennlig hilsen Petter Reinholdtsen -- = For melde deg av denne epostlisten eller endre innstillingene dine besk: https://lists.skolelinux.org/listinfo/bruker
