All rights reserved iv Goals and Prerequisites Dragon is software for Windows computers that lets you speak naturally to perform actions such as creating or editing documents, using e-mail, finding online maps, news, images, and more. By reducing keyboard and mouse usage, you can gain productivity AND avoid physical strain (on wrists, shoulders, neck, eyes…) “Speaking to” your PC may feel strange at first. Be patient with yourself! This workbook aims to efficiently present what an end-user should know: most importantly, how to “type by voice” efficiently. This includes: Dictating anything: punctuation marks, prices, dates, URLs, phone or plate numbers, abbreviations, acronyms, Roman numerals, etc. Personalizing the Vocabulary with custom words and phrases, pronunciations, capitalization properties and more, so that Dragon can transcribe exactly what you want, even if what you said could be written in different ways. Correcting Dragon’s errors so that it can learn from them. Formatting, editing, and revising text, whether or not it was created by voice. Creating custom commands to insert boilerplate text and/or graphics. In addition, you can learn how to command your computer by voice, which includes: Saying commands to use the Internet and e-mail, search your computer, open programs, click menus and buttons, close or minimize windows, switch between windows, etc. “Voice-pressing” a key (or key combination) on your keyboard. To perform the exercises in this workbook, you should have basic familiarity with: Using Microsoft® Windows® to start or exit applications, open or save files, copy or move items, browse to folders, cut and paste, etc. Word-processing concepts such as bullets, font size and style, bolding and italicizing, right-aligning and centering. Efficiency and hands-free usage We strongly recommend going through this workbook in order. (If you are familiar with Dragon, consider reading the What’s New first.) When a lesson directs you to click an item (button, menu…), feel free to instead use your voice, or keyboard shortcuts (underlined letters, Tab, spacebar…). If hands-free usage is important to you, start by reading the lesson Controlling the Operating System and Applications and see the Help about MouseGrid and commands for moving, clicking, and dragging the mouse. IMPORTANT: Starting the Microphone Check or the Interactive Tutorial automatically turns off Dragon’s microphone, which means a manual action is then needed to resume using Dragon. If this is a concern for you, we recommend having a helper with you when you create or upgrade a profile, use the Interactive Tutorial, or use the Microphone Check.

    Voice Recognition - Speak and it Types for You Voice recognition can be a tricky thing to work with in a test taking setting. There are voice recognition programs or apps for every platform, so the issue isn't that you need a specific computer to use it on. Rather, to use it, a person's speech needs to be fairly clear and consistent without a lot of background noises interfering with the program trying to decipher what it just recorded. Both the PC and Mac operating systems have versions of voice recognition built in. An example in Windows 7 is called Speech recognition, and can be found under the Control Panel, Ease of Access. You would typically go through a set of exercises training the program to understand your voice, but you can use it without doing so. Directions for use can be found by clicking on Speech Recognition. Voice recognition on the Mac OS (Mountain Lion or later) can be found in System Preferences, Dictation & Speech. As with the Windows program, you don't need to train it to begin using it, and as you see in the window shown here, you can set a keyboard shortcut to activate it on/off. You need internet access to use it though, as it sends the sound file to an offsite server to process, then sends the text back into the program you are using it with. iPad Siri, a part of IOS 7, is a voice recognition app that puts a microphone icon onto the keyboard on iPad 3 and up, with IOS 7 and up.
