Reading Assistant™ is the only reading tool that uses speech recognition to support and correct students as they read aloud – never missing a teachable moment. No other e-book or program provides comparable support. With Reading Assistant, students receive individualized coaching every time they use the software.
How Reading Assistant works….
• When a student has difficulty reading a word, Reading Assistant intervenes by pronouncing the word if the student does not self-correct.
• After completing a passage, questions measure literal and inferential comprehension.
• Utilizes the best practices of guided oral reading instruction, the gold standard for building fluency.
How Reading Assistant helps….
• Personal Reading Coach for Every Student – even hard-to-engage students will practice reading aloud, always without judgment.
• Engages the Student – reading selections for a variety of interests and reading levels, plus frequent comprehension checks, keep students motivated and focused on reading for meaning.
• Saves Teacher Time – it automatically assesses and tracks words correct per minute (WCPM) and reading comprehension for teachers!
• Builds Better Readers – students improve reading level 50% beyond expected gains.
• Dramatically Improves Reading Fluency – the critical bridge to comprehension.
Designed for K-12 learners….
