The freeware is useful for pupils in improving primary reading and writing skills (reading education, literacy).
Gio-Key-Board is multilingual and language-independent. All sounds, graphics, keyboard layouts, options (100) and dictionary-words of the program can be changed and adapted. The free software can read and speak all written texts by speech synthesis. The "Child-Write-Program" also has a speaking dictionary to insert words into the text.
Handicapped persons (special education) can write texts using either a single keyboard-key, mouse-button or the joystick.
