  • Patent number: 10387543
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically mapping English phonemes to graphemes to support better reading and spelling instruction may include a mapping process for systematically dividing text words into graphemes made up of one or more text characters corresponding to appropriately identified phonemes (which may be represented by one or more phonetic characters). The process may also include automatically correlating each phoneme of a word with a grapheme representing the phoneme in order to produce a phoneme-to-grapheme map that may be optimized for educational use. Some embodiments may include a teaching process for presenting the results of the mapping process to students.
