The “Talking Books” approach creates resources specifically designed to address the learning needs of individual students.
 “Talking Books” incorporate digital photos of students and their environments, their own communication systems such as PCS , and recorded speech into inter-active multi-media presentations, and print resources such as Big Books, individual readers and learning centre activities.
The “Talking Books” approach individualises learning activities by developing student specific resources for use across the Key Learning Areas, including English, Maths, The Arts, and Science.

This approach,developed by Chris Benke, won Barwon Valley a National Literacy Award in 2000, and a finalist place in the Education Trust Technology Award, 2000
