Assistive Technology Dyslexia - New Ways To HelpI wanted to find out what was available in the world of assistive technology and dyslexia. These aids can make life easier and more manageable for people with reading and/or spelling difficulties and can be used by children and adults. Electronic Dictionaries Tens of thousands of words at the touch a button, pocket sized dictionaries that put the fun back into searching for words. Audio Books Listen in the car, whilst walking to work, even at work for that matter! Audio books can be downloaded as an mp3 or bought as a cd. Great for kids! Reading Pens and Handheld Scanners Think of this as text to speech in miniature. With a reading pen, individual words or lines from a book are highlighted and read out loud. Handheld scanners transfer text from a book onto the computer screen without you typing a word! We also take a look on this page at the Tag Reading System. The Tag magic pen reads stories out loud and interacts with different elements of the book - ideal for younger children. Voice Recognition Software If writing is not your strong suit, consider this software. Simply talk to your computer and with speech to text technology, your spoken words will be turned into print. Text to Speech Software For those who are slow readers or suffer from eye strain, this could be the answer. Tell your computer what to read, and documents, emails and instant messages will be read out loud to you.
