Co:Writer Universal is an accessibility app and extension for iOS, Chrome, and Microsoft Edge. It uses grammar and vocabulary word prediction, translation support, and speech recognition to help students get started writing. As students begin typing words, Co:Writer uses "Neuron Word Prediction" to guess which word they're trying to type. Students can then select the suggested words to use in their text from a drop-down box. Topic-specific dictionaries for over four million categories are available to personalize the word choices based on the content being covered. Students can also get text read aloud to them to check if their writing makes sense. This option can be turned on or off as needed. Teachers also have the option of creating their own topic dictionary to assist students with vocabulary to be used in a written work.
