Guest guest Posted December 14, 2000 Report Share Posted December 14, 2000 Hi My son is in 7th grade and the school is looking at different software to help with his reading math and such. He already has co-writer for helping him write. They are suggesting stuff from intellitools.com. I have heard others mention some Edmark programs. He reads on an upper first grade level. Can add numbers up to 10 and count to 100. He has no understanding of money except quarters are for pinball LOL he has his prioities. Help before Friday LOL no rush(not). We have a planning meeting and I have an educational advocate(YES!!!!!!) The team meeting will be set up after that. jeannette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2000 Report Share Posted December 14, 2000 The Edmark Reading program is a great program. Mav has been using it for several years. Right now he is reading at a mid first grade level. He will be able to use this program for years. He just started the spelling aspect of it this year and is doing pretty good on it. It goes slowly and is repetitive. It also has worksheets and little booklets that go with it for homework and review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2000 Report Share Posted December 15, 2000 I use the Jumpstart programs with my daughter and she has learned so much from them it is amazing. Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2000 Report Share Posted December 15, 2000 has this incredible program called " Gus Goes to Cyberopolis. " It is from Modern Media Ventures and they have a toll free number 1-800-530-5080. This is a couple of years old, so I hope it's still good. This program has science with animal videos that you click on and the animals move and it tells about them. It has a diner with geography pictures that you click on and it takes you all around the world. The diner also has foods and table items in several languages. The subway has a recycling game (matching items). The library has books you click on for different subjects, etc. It is amazing. We bought it from a school book thing for $4.95. I'm sure it's a little more expensive now. It has everything though and is about the level you are looking for and completely mouseable (is that a word, LOL). It is an entire curriculum unto itself. The music and cartoon graphics tickle pink. Now that this has become a Russian novel, just check this one out.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 The only specific program that Dr. G recommended for my kids was " Earobics " --- otherwise, he recommended that they engage in strong academic programs that they enjoy---we've had success with Mighty Math (Edmark), Reader Rabbit (The Learning Company), Jumpstart Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade etc., Reading Blaster. Most of these you can find at Walmart, and Office Depot Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 Last year, we tried the 30-day free trial of Kidspiration, the younger version for kids up to 5th grade functioning level, but only used it a few times. I found it kind of cumbersome and a bit confusing to work with and Curt didn't like it. However, I was looking for something to promote more expansive thinking and organizing thoughts at the time -- which this didn't seem to do in the way I was wanting it to -- and not a writing program which this seemed to be more geared towards. I'm interested to know what you think about Inspiration. I'm assuming you have an older child who is functioning at a fairly high level conceptually? Please let me know once you've had a chance to try it out. Also, Dr. G has suggested we see Dr. Stilton as well. Have you found her to be helpful? I'd appreciate any info you would be willing to share on or off list. Gaylen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Hey, I bailed on Medisoft and have been much happier with Chirotouch. I especially like the "posting" done when I am in a room seing a patient in live time. No more route slips to the front desk, later posting, etc. http://www.chiro-touch.com Don WHite, RN, DC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 I have used Eclipse with only minor problems for years. The staff likes it and new employees learn quickly. I owned a clinic for a short time that used Medisoft, and staff that worked in both places hated Medisoft and worked well with Eclipse. Contact me offline for a reference.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 I still would like to know more docs with large practices and multiple doctors that are satisfied with eclipse software. We are having a terrible time with our software and I don't see an end in sight. I would like hear from new users and docs with a long history. Dr Pedersen may I also contact you off line for specifics? M. Kehr D. C. Blue Mountain Chiropractic Clinic 2008 Third St, suite B. La Grande, Oregon 97850 541 -963 -9632 software Dr. Abrahamson: I have used Eclipse for 11 years. Very impressive program. It does far more than I need. I expect their periodic update to eventually include the insurance equivalent of a 'trunk monkey'. I pay a monthly 'service fee'....but all updates and tech stuff is no charge.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 And to coattail off that email, is it a total reconfiguration of the HCFA/CMS form? Or can I still get by with my Lytec 2000? We're a small office, and it has served us well thus far. Alan Creswell Chiropractic p.s. I love how Tommy revolutionized the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Instead of CMMS, it's just CMS. So he trimmed an "M". Good job cutting government waste, Tommy!

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 We're Lytec users, and are dealing with this issue as well... My understanding is that Lytec 2000 WON'T print the new HCFA's... So, you have to at least upgrade to Lytec 2006. BUT, if you don't upgrade to Lytec 2006 ($1,795.00) by this Friday (again, this is our understanding), then you have to buy Lytec 2007. BUT...your old data files from Lytec 2000 WON'T transferable to Lytec 2007... So, (again, our understanding) is that you have to upgrade to Lytec 2006 by this Friday, or lose all your data files...this is what WE were told by Lytec (and we're not very happy I have been looking at Chiro 8000! It's less expensive than the Lytec upgrade, and actually looks like a better layout to me... But, we haven't made any final decisions! M. s, D.C.

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hello everyone. I have been practicing CR for about a year on my own, reading as much as I can, and keeping detailed paper records. However I know that a lot of you use computer software to keep track of your nutrition. What software is is, and where can I find it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the program and I have found it helpful in many ways. For example I am clearly not getting enough Vit D. Other programs do more but this one is free.
