About Us (and the History of KidsVoyager)Spelling is a mechanical process. On a computer keyboard, it involves pressing keys in a particular order. Phonic Engine® Spelling, as we call it, involves clicking the mouse over letters, pictures, and words, all of which are spoken. The difference is that with Phonic Engine® Spelling, a child can spell thousands of words almost immediately after learning this mechanical process. And through use of this technique, the child will acquire knowledge which is fundamental to reading, spelling, and language in general. What makes this possible is that:
These observations, made by Steve Siegel, founder of Innovism, led to our first patent, and marked the beginning of an effort which resulted in KidsVoyager Online. KidsVoyager is the first consumer product to utilize the methodology of this patent. It's the result of years of dedication and extensive collaboration among technologists, educators, and Speech and Language therapists. As discussed on our home page, use of this method has rather remarkable results with respect to the acquisition of literacy and maximizing a child's own potential. Innovism, a private company in Brooklyn, NY, has since developed additional patented methods, all directed toward literacy or acquisition of information by children or individuals with difficulty reading or spelling. When we say on our home page that we created KidsVoyager to help your child, we mean it. So please don't hesitate to contact us, either before or after you sign up, with any questions you may have regarding technical or language development issues. |
