Benefit: Reading speed and comprehension
Age / Grade Level: All
Computer System: Windows & Mac
Training Availability: Yes (click here for more details)
The Kurzweil 3000 software program increases reading speed and comprehension. It has word decoding capabilities, and improves writing tasks and study skills. This nationally recognized program was specifically designed to help students with learning and reading disabilities, including Dyslexia, ADD, ESL, ADHD, as well as other special needs. Several studies and surveys have documented the effectiveness of the Kurzweil 3000 program.
How it Works: Kurzweil scans and reads aloud any book, test, or handout, highlighting each word as it is spoken. If the page has charts, graphs or pictures, the student sees these as the captions are read aloud. This tracking on the exact image of the book itself builds reading speed and confidence and will enable the student to return to reading the source text at a much higher reading speed.
Features:
Multi-sensory approach engages the students’ attention with less fatigue, enabling them to spend more time on task.
- Program includes phonics, word recognition, audio dictionary and thesaurus, spelling and other word de-coding and vocabulary building tools.
- Study tools include highlighting, note taking , voice notes, and outlining directly with the text. (Windows version only.)
- Test taking with the Kurzweil 3000 reinforces “ inclusion” and “mainstreaming” of your special needs students.

WordQ™ is a software tool used along with standard writing software. WordQ suggests words for you to use and provides spoken feedback to help you find mistakes. Users of all ages who have problems writing and editing, particularly those with learning disabilities (LD), can benefit from using WordQ. It features a carefully thought-out design with only essential functions that have demonstrated benefits to help students write.
SpeakQ plugs into WordQ and adds simple speech recognition. Conventional speech recognition systems are designed primarily as a productivity tool for persons who have no trouble writing (and dictating) or as an alternative hands-free access tool for persons with physical disabilities. WordQ/SpeakQ, on the other hand, is for those who can type but who have trouble writing and reading in the first place. They can benefit from a combination of word prediction, speech output and speech input to generate text when stuck with spelling and word forms, identifying errors, proofreading and editing. Such users may find it difficult or impossible to use other speech recognition products because of reading demands and complexity.
SpeakQ features a simple training interface where the computer prompts you by voice what to say. You can then dictate directly into any document or dictate into WordQ's prediction list. Your speech is combined with the word prediction. To keep it simple, there are no verbal commands. You only dictate text. Teachers in special education will appreciate its simplicity.
