The Word & Concepts Series

This award-winning series offers a complete, integrated approach to language training. These programs are flexible, easy-to-run, based on sound learning principles, and fun to use.
The Word & Concepts Series integrates language and concepts training in a unique way. Each program uses a core vocabulary of 40 nouns in six related language units; Vocabulary, Categorization, Word Identification by Function, Word Association, and the Concepts of Same and Different. These programs will help both adults and children with language impairments build vocabulary, strengthen their language comprehension, discover world relationships, and develop important concepts.
Most of the activities have three levels of difficulty. The computer can be set to work on one level or branch among the levels, following the progress of the individual. These programs can be used with non-readers, but there is also a text option for beginning readers and adults with traumatic brain injury or aphasia. This program is suggested for adults and children with language-learning disabilities, developmental disabilities, physical impairments, visual impairments, hearing impairments, and autism; adults with traumatic brain injury and aphasia; students learning English as a Second Language, and Spanish speaking children with language disorders. Spanish versions are available. Designed to compliment the CONCENTRATE! On Words & Concepts program. The Words & Concepts Series is included on a free CD Demo available from Laureate.
