This is going to be fast, but it's important.
I had several students over the years for whom Dragon Dictation software was recommended. They had many kinds of educational challenges, from dyslexia to handwriting issues to just a kind of "fear" or dread of writing by hand. Never once did I have a kiddo who used it, mostly because they didn't want to look weird or different.
But guess what? I have recently found out that Dragon Dictation is a commonly-used tool by providers within the Community Health Network.
Providers. That's hospital-speak for doctors.
So just in case you're still reading this blog, don't ever feel weird for using it, people.
It's technology, and it's there for a reason. You'll be in good company.
