Assistive Technology
In our district we have the ability to use dictation (speech to text) in Google Docs, Read&Write, and SnapType.Â
To use the speech to text option in Google Docs, simply go to the "tools" tab and select Voice Typing. Be sure your microphone is on.
To download Read&Write, go to this website: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/readwrite-for-google-chro/inoeonmfapjbbkmdafoankkfajkcphgd?pli=1
SnapType is currently under beta testing; however, we can use the free version with some options. This is a free App dowload that can be used on a student's laptop or Ipad. It takes photos of worksheets and the student is able to type the answers.
