Scan and read software is designed to help students with reading and writing difficulties, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia and aphasia, experience success in school. It is also great for English Language Learners (ELL) and students with ADD (attention deficit disorder) or ADHD (attention deficit hyperactive disorder). Scan and read software allows students to scan or take pictures of their text and turn it into a computer document. It works by highlighting of the text for the child as it is spoken. In addition, students can change the font, font size, font color, and background color to make it easier for them to read and understand the information. This can help all learners experience success in school. One product I found was WYNN, which is made by the Learning Systems Group. Below, is a video of WYNN being used for a literature circle in an elementary classroom.
