Book Reviews of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 Video Guide: Volumes I & II (for Naturally Speaking software)Book Review: Dragon Video Training Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using Dragon Naturally Speaking for about 4 years. I started out with version 7, upgraded to version 7.03 Preferred, changed to version 8 Professional, and now I am using version 9 Preferred. I thought that I was fairly competent with using Dragon Naturally Speaking. But then, I had to do several presentations on the product at local clubs. So, I thought I should get more information and I ordered the 2 video CD set from Say-I-Can. I think I can safely say that I learned about 80% more than I had on my own. I have been doing computer training and computer teaching for about 12 years. I have over 80 books that are supposed to teach you how to use computer software of various sorts. In my opinion, most of them only teach you a "Table of Contents." With this video series on Dragon Naturally Speaking, you are taught how to use the program, and not just what the program does. The training is broken down into short, 5-10 minute, or so, segments. As you view one of the segments, you can pause the video, and then practice what you have seen with Dragon in a software application that you have open. You also get to see Dan Newman, the president of Say-I-Can, talking to you as he demonstrates how the program works. I like this effect, and think that it personalizes the instruction and makes it more friendly to follow. Dragon Naturally Speaking is a full voice recognition software product. It will work in many software applications. If you want to learn more about using the product, I highly recommend these training videos.
