I really want to start a new project to do with language and phonetics, and how interactive design could be used as a tool for learning. I am dyslexic as most people seem to be these days!But I have been one for 12 years as I was diagnosed when I was nine. I was luckily to have parents who were interested in my education and I did a book called Toe by Toe everyday for 20 minutes untill I was 10 or 11. I have to say it probably changed my life I went from struggling with reading and writing etc, to being in set 1 or 2 for all of my subjects I also got As or Bs at gcse so its interesting to see not only that I had improved but I had improved consistently with all my subjects. I am trying to get my hands on the book again to see if I can remember anything from it, and to see if it was a good as I remember. I think basically the book was a break down of the english language but made for dyslexics. I dream that one day my boyfriend and I who does english language linguistics will open up an Interactive Language Museum. I know we are a bit mad but I actually think if it did happen it would be really great. Anyway I want to use this new inspiration to start a mini project, post some more soon.
