Hello All,
I have a student I'm working with that is visually impaired and needs help especially with his math courses. His ask is for a a program for both text to speech and speech to text for math. What recommendations would you have for that student that would be accurate in reading the symbols etc. that comes in math? Thank you.
Best Regards,
Derrick Fowles (he/him)

Hi all,
I've hit a roadblock in making sure we can provide access to exams hosted in Examsoft's Examplify platform. In the past, we had the Speechify Windows desktop application and that would read an unsecured Examplify exam. Now that desktop application no longer exists and everything I look at appears to be based in a web browser, which does not work for reading another desktop application.
We tried to have a Word document for TTS and have the student respond to the questions in Examplify but the department is not happy with this solution as they believe it provides the student with additional access.
What have you found to be successful for these types of exams?
Thank you!
