Motivating and helpful for the young student

The Franklin Merrian-Websters Speaking collegiate Dictionary, 11th Ediction - SCD1870 does everything it claims. I purchased it for my grandson to start 4th grade. He struggles with spelling, and I wanted to help reduce the frustration he feels when trying to look up words in a standard dictionary. He loves this device! Although it is not a child's dictionary, its features make it usable by even this young boy. He can type in a phonetic spelling and find the correct spelling for words he wants to use in his written work. Even though the definitions may be advanced, he can look up words in the definition instantly! His vocabularly is growing swiftly while his frustration level is decreasing. In addition, he learns new words every time he turns the Franklin on! He and I play the spelling games and have a lot of fun together while learning at the same time. His mother is overjoyed because my grandson can enter his weekly spelling words into the Franklin and practice on his own. Spelling is no longer overwhelming. In my professional capacity as psychotherapist and specialist consultant to families about learning disabilities, I am now recommending the Franklin as an assitive device for children at the right reading level. Thanks Franklin.

I was surprised not to find some deffinitions! A little hard to see at times. Would have been better to have it back lit. All in all it's not bad!You can add books which is why I bought it!

Not happy with the display

The words on the display look perfect under natural light. With any indoor lingting, the words project shadows on the display. Therefore, the user will see double images for each word and has to strain his/her eyes to read the definitions and examples. The dictionary has to be held at a certain angle relative to the light source in order to avoid shadows.

I have had this dictionary over a year. I use it daily. I use such features as a dictionary, synonims and pronunciation. English is a second language for me so those features are very helpful and importamt . Also , I like the way words are explained. They are explained in simple manner. If I have a trouble still to understanding a meaning of a word I press for thesaurus. Some other time I have a trouble to understand a word in explanation, so I underline it and press a botton for clarification. In addition, I use thesaurus for selecting words when I write an essay , just replacing the same words with similar in meanings. My children find it useful and easy to use too.I love the this dictionary.
