Encouraging students to become proficient, lifelong readers.
Reading Assistant software was developed with the collaborative efforts of a world-renowned team in education, linguistics, speech verification, and software engineering. Using cutting-edge speech verification technology and research-validated intervention, Reading Assistant helps students master reading and allows them—and their parents and teachers—to chart their progress.
Reading Assistant software uses research-validated speech verification technology to act as a supportive, non-judgmental listener providing one-on-one guided oral reading support. Repeated oral reading with support is a proven method for improving reading fluency.
Reading Assistant software provides pronunciations, definitions, contextual sentences and picture representations to strengthen a learner’s vocabulary. As students build automaticity, using the Reading Assistant software, students will progress from learning to read to reading to learn, building vocabulary skills.
Open book, true/false, multiple choice and multiple response questions during and at the end of each passage ensure that students focus their attention on the meaning of the words and build comprehension skills.
Extensive reporting features and recordings of student readings allow teachers to monitor student progress.
