*************************.* NOTE: YOU MU
ST HAVE A JOYSTICK IN *.* PORT #2 TO USE
THIS PROGRAM. *.******************
*******************.. WHEN A SCHOOLTE
ACHER WANTS TO.TEST THE STUDENTS' SPELLI
NG.ABILITIES, IT'S USUALLY JUST A MATTER
.OF SAYING THE WORD OUT LOUD AND.HAVING
THE STUDENTS WRITE THE WORD.DOWN. HOW C
AN THIS BE DONE BY A.COMPUTER THAT CAN'T
SPEAK OR READ?.OTAMERE OMORUYI HAS COME
UP WITH AN.INGENIOUS ANSWER TO THIS DEC
ADE-OLD.PROBLEM.. INSTEAD OF SAYING T
HE WORD OUT.LOUD, HE HAS DRAWN OVER ONE
HUNDRED.PICTURES OF EVERYDAY OBJECTS FOR
THE.STUDENT TO RECOGNIZE. THEN THE.STU
DENT IS SHOWN A 'BLACKBOARD' WITH.THE LE
TTERS OF THE ALPHABET ON IT..THE STUDENT
CAN MOVE A CURSOR WITH.THE JOYSTICK, CH
OOSING THE LETTERS TO.SPELL THE NAME OF
THE OBJECT... THIS PROGRAM IS PERFECT
FOR.GRADE-SCHOOL CHILDREN. THE PICTURE
S.ARE ATTRACTIVE AND ENTERTAINING AND.IT
'S FUN TO CHOSE THE LETTERS FROM.THE ALP
HABET. IF THE WORD IS SPELLED.CORRECTLY
, THE STUDENT IS.CONGRATULATED; IF THE S
PELLING IS.WRONG, THE CORRECT SPELLING I
S SHOWN... A LOT OF WORK WENT INTO TH
E.DRAWING OF THESE OBJECTS AND THERE.ARE
ENOUGH OF THEM TO KEEP ANY CHILD.INTERE
STED IN PLAYING THE GAME OVER.AND OVER A
GAIN... THERE IS A DETAILED SET OF.IN
STRUCTIONS SHOWN ON THE SCREEN FOR.EITHE
R THE STUDENT OR AN ADULT TO.READ, SO IT
'S A SNAP TO PLAY. NO.KEYBOARD ENTRY IS
NECESSARY -- ALL OF.THE MOVEMENT CAN BE
DONE WITH A.JOYSTICK... ADULTS MAY E
NJOY FIGURING OUT THE.OBJECTS AND LETTIN
G THE CHILDREN DO.THE SPELLING. THERE I
S A 'VIEWING'.MODE THAT YOU CAN LOOK THR
OUGH BEFORE.TESTING.. SPELLER IS A WE
