Computer Aides

Technology has made things a bit easier for people with dyslexia. Here are few that you might want to look into:

ReadTheWords.com is a FREE website that offers text to voice services.

• Copy/Paste text...it will read it
• Upload text files (Word, PDF, etc.)...it will read it
• Type in a website address...it will read it!

The Reading Pen by Wizcom is a great tool for dyslexics who need assistance with certain words. Using the pen like a hi-lighter, scan the unknown word. The pen will (most times) display the word, pronounce the word, and provide (and read) the definition of the word if still unknown. Further, if words within the definition are unknown, select that unknown word to get the pronunciation and definition.

This pen is a great tool to supplement the Davis® reading exercises when a support person is not available.

Read-On Software was designed by a Davis® Dyslexia Correction Facilitator. It has since been further developed and is an award winning software that has been implemented in homes and schools around the world.

Based on the 3 Steps to Easier Reading (Davis Reading Exercises), this software enables users to scan in reading material of choice, and read along as each word is highlighted. Words that are unknown will be pronounced, and users can build dictionaries of difficult words as they are revealed.

Read-On Software is available for purchase at DDAI.
