Talking Word Processor Software is aimed at students with learning & writing difficulties. This includes beginning readers, people with visual disabilities, and ELL learners.
The way it works is rather unique. This software provides auditory feedback as the student writes. It echoes the letters as the student types them. It also repeats the entirety of the text once the student is finished. This type of software benefits students who like to have their words repeated to them. Not only does it read the student's words but outside text can be inserted imported and read back to the students. The software can be adapted by the student to change the rate and volume of the speech as well as the voice reading to them.
One popular application of this type of software is Intellitalk.
