Ginger
Software- Better Communication!
Ginger is the world's leading contextual spelling and grammar checker.
Ginger Software offers a unique product unlike any other on the market. It's the first tool that enables struggling writers to work efficiently and independently eliminating spelling mistakes, grammar errors and misused words in a single click, as well as providing a personalized learning environment where users can learn from their mistakes. Ginger's automatic correction enables people to write error-free texts with unprecedented accuracy. Based on full-sentence context, Ginger automatically corrects even the most severe spelling and grammatical mistakes. Ginger has been receiving rave reviews from teachers, students and the industry, and has often been described as a "miracle worker"
For example, Ginger will automatically correct the following sentence:
Ginger reads texts. The Ginger text to speech reader
reads aloud texts in emails, documents and web pages in a high
quality voice, while highlighting
the word being read. This enables the user to easily proofread the
document,
associate the sound with the spelling, improves the pronunciation,
and encourages
users to concentrate and finish reading a text. The user can adjust
the voice,
speed and volume of the speaker.
Ginger helps students learn from their own mistakes while
providing teachers
with tools to track students' progress. The Ginger Learning
system tracks
the errors of each individual user, providing assessment &
progress reports
to students and teachers. The reports include the most frequent
mistakes in
each topic, as well as a student's progress over time. Teachers can
view individual
student reports or any group report. This enables the teachers to
better tailor
their lessons for the level of each student. The Ginger Tutor
automatically
creates a personalized learning program with tailored lessons and
quizzes for
each user. Ginger provides students with short multi-media lessons
explaining
how to avoid repeating their mistakes in the future. They can then
take a quiz
to make sure they have thoroughly understood the subject. They are
able to work
at their own pace and learn from their mistakes.
For a limited time, the members of TIE are invited to a free one year subscription to Ginger Premium.

Benefits to schools:
" Gain valuable data about the amount of text the students are
writing
as well as the kind of errors they are making, while tracking their
progress
over time.
" Students can produce error-free texts independently while
allowing educators
to monitor their progress.
" Change the student - teacher relationship. Students are able to
hand
in papers that reflect their thoughts and ideas, regaining their
confidence
and changing their attitude towards writing. The teachers are able
to correct
beyond the grammar and spelling mistakes and actually focus on the
content of
the text.
" With the help of The Ginger Tutor, the students continue the
learning
process whenever they write - whether writing an email, an essay,
or updating
their status on Facebook. Within all these platforms, they receive
Ginger's
corrections in a single click, together with explanations on how to
avoid repeating
common mistakes in the future, and an invitation to learn more
using personalized
learning materials.
" The Ginger Tutor tailors the lessons to address each student's
most frequent
mistakes, significantly increasing learning efficiency.
" Students can exercise correcting their own sentences, instead of
learning
textbook examples, which may not necessarily be relevant to
them.
" Teacher effectiveness can be measured, assessing students'
progress before
and after the provided instruction. Data can be collected and
analyzed at any
point, providing information about the progress of individual
students as well
as whole classes.
