Here's how it works: A child goes into a booth where he is alone with a "'talk- ing typewriter." He touches a letter key on the multi-colored keyboard a:ft the computer re- sponds by pronouncing and typ- ing the letter. He soon discovers how let- ters, symbols and numerals jlook and sound, later expand- ling them into words, sentences and stories--all within 30 hours of "instrumented instruction." The Freeport experiment started five months ago when the Responsive Environment Corp. of the Thomas A. Edison Laboratory in New York in- vited the Freeport public schools to conduct an experi- ment to determine the instru- ment's validity.

The experiment with 20 kin- dergarten and mentally re- tarded children showed that in- telligence and sex made no dif- ference. During the last five months, "no one ever spoke in loud tones," Martin said. 'Hurry was forbidden. A_ generally pleasant hush was maintained in order to keep the children in a neutral atmosphere." As for teachers, they merely observed the child's progress through an unseen one - way ERS oe viewing mirror. & et e Will Officiate At Opening Mayor Lyman Gifford will officiate at the official opening (for inspection by the public) of a modern home known as "The Kiwanis House" on Inver- ness street in Braemor Gar- dens, Saturday afternoon.
