AVKO's Free Videos
AVKO has two different
videos: one that introduces our flagship Sequential Spelling
program as well as shows you how to use it and one that
shows Don McCabe working with a 17 year-old dyslexic.
Watch Don McCabe as he takes a 17-year-old dyslexic through
his first lesson at the AVKO Educational Research
Foundation. You will be able to watch the young man's
face as he discovers that Mr. McCabe has "tricked him" into
being able to read and spell instantly the word
malicious!
But it's not trickery.
It's based on solid educational principles. McCabe, a
dyslexic himself, has discovered that it is the ends of
"big" words that determine how the beginnings are pronounced
and that it is the endings of words that often use
different, albeit consistent, phonic patterns. Isn't
that nice. But notice,
notice is not not ice!

either video on a CD or a DVD if you would prefer.
Our videos come in
several formats:

If DVD+R, it may not work on your computer's DVD
drive; please try it on your DVD player (attached to
the TV).

The Video CDs and DVDs are
great for
people with slow internet connections or those who would
like to show the video at a conference
where getting AV equipment may be cumbersome. The free
video is on the CD in two formats: RealMedia (.rm) and MPEG
(.mpg). MPEG is a universally standard format that may
be played with almost any media playing program.
The RealMedia file may be played only with RealPlayer; we have
included RealPlayer 10 on the CD for your own ease.
