A computer program for execution on a computing device is provided to cross-train
students in language development skills such as letter-word correspondence, word
recognition, vocabulary, and sentence and paragraph comprehension. A set of programs
provide an adaptive methodology for training a student in decoding (semantic, syntactic,
phonological, and morphological relationships), knowledge of rhymes, synonyms,
antonyms, and homophones, spelling, letter-word correspondences, sentence comprehension,
grammatical comprehension, working memory, vocabulary, paragraph comprehension,
and improved reading comprehension. In each program, students are presented with
an animated scene that poses a question, and a set of answers. The set of answers
contain a correct response, and a number of incorrect responses or foils. The student
advances to more complex levels by satisfying predetermined correct thresholds.
Through repetition and intensity, the student's language skills are developed.
