Reading & Writing Software

Enables students whose disabilities affect their reading comprehension and/or writing skills by simultaneously reading text aloud and highlighting each spoken word on a monitor. Students can pause on any word and have instant access to dictionary, thesaurus, pronunciation, and note-taking features. Material is opened from a file, scanned in, or created within the program, then saved as a document for output.
