Abstract
A method and apparatus is disclosed that includes techniques for modifying visual information to improve the visual processing of a target object by a human subject in conjunction with the presentation of auditory information related to the target object. The techniques may include visual modification to the target object. In addition, the techniques also may include reducing the visual processing load produced by competing information or other objects unrelated to the visual processing of the target object. The techniques are well suited for application with the presentation of visual information directed to reading, speech reception and speech production instruction.
