While most of the times I work on commercial projects I also think it is vital to give something back to the community whenever you can. Today I am finally releasing a little side project of mine called PotsBlitz.

• PotsBlitz ready-to-use version
• PotsBlitz source code on Github

PotsBlitz is an educational program which is used for training dyslexic children. It is based on the theory of FlashWords. The idea behind FlashWords is simple. You show a kid a word for a short period of time and it then has to tell the teacher the word it saw. It can be used for a wide range of exercises one could be to train a certain reading strategy e.g. based on syllables. If you wanna learn more about PotsBlitz head over to the project page. Furthermore PotsBlitz also comes bundled with the reading training program "PotsBlitz - Das Potsdamer Lesetraining" which you can find here. While the training costs money the software part will always be for free.
