Webinar - Assistive technology and tools for students & adults with dyslexia

For many people with dyslexia, tasks that require reading or writing can be challenging. Fortunately, there are now many apps, platforms and technologies that can assist. These tools can be helpful for both students and adults to “level the playing field”, assist in productivity in day-to-day activities, and even make the task of reading and writing more enjoyable... This session will provide an overview and walk-through of some of the more common (and free) apps and technology that you might find useful such as speech-to-text; text-to-speech; note-taking; and digital libraries.
