This Go Dyslexia video blog features a demonstration of Voice Dream Reader. Stan Glass joins me again to review the many benefits of this voice to text technology that can help to level the playing field for an individual with dyslexia. Voice Dream Reader is our preferred App to use with Bookshare, but we also love to use it to read online documents, PDFs, and more. Come join the discussion as we walk you through how you can use the many amazing features like exporting highlights, finger reading, Pac-Man mode, adjusting the size and color of the text, and more. Voice Dream Reader is a wonderful tool for dyslexics of all ages.
