Text to Speech in the classroom-Research into Practice Article

I came across a great little article just the other day about using Text to Speech technology to help struggling readers.  You can access it by clicking here.  This article does a great job of taking the current research about Text to Speech accommodations and explaining it in plain English.  I love the concept of presenting Text to Speech to all students and letting them decide for themselves whether or not it is a useful tool for them.  This empowers students and makes sure that nobody falls through the cracks.

  This is also a great article to share with interested (or disinterested) parents, Regular Education Teachers, and Administrators who are seeking more information, or who need to overcome to false notions about reading accommodations.

Thanks for reading.  I would love to hear people's thoughts about the article in the comments!
