Articoolo vs. Read&Write

Articoolo provides value to any user / professional. It is responsible for generating content ideas at scale with which you can create content even without much knowledge on a specific topic.

I like how diverse the tools are and that they can target specific needs while also being broad enough to be used by everyone. I have students who use the Co-Writer tool to write emails to their teachers. I have students who get tired from reading on their own and will use the text to speech aspect of it. I do have students who have cerebral palsy and it is hard for the program to understand their voice, so they have a hard time using the speech to text part.

• Articoolo has several packages. It offers pay-as-you-go plans with no time limit and monthly subscriptions.
• To use the text writer, you simply need to enter four to five keywords. Articoolo doesn't give you much control over articles in terms of length or structure
• The Articoolo WordPress plugin enables expedited delivery of content directly to my WordPress site. Makes publishing much faster ...
• Offers an article summary tool.

• Creates vocabulary lists for students that include symbols, definitions, and space to add additional notes or images (a staff favorite)
• Intuitive word prediction that supports spelling, grammar, and reduces the number of keystrokes needed
• Text-to-speech on any digital text using the regular reader or screenshot reader, making almost any content accessible

• Articoolo is neither bad nor perfect.
• Articoolo has some drawbacks and limitations, such as that they are available socially only on Facebook and not on other social media sites, which sometimes makes it difficult to communicate with other users.

• Setting the speech to text up on different devices that do not have the internet speed to function smoothly or if it is in Exam mode and the user is not constantly using the speech to text mode.
• Grouping the voices on their style such as harsh, clipped or soft would enable to pick their preference quicker rather than going through all of the different countries.

I'm just really impressed with the software and the access it gives to learners who are used to coming up against barriers in education. It's a quick-fix for a learner - something they can access usefully and productively with very little training. I also love that learners can access Read&Write on their devices at home - that really is a game changer.

I am giving this an 9. Not a perfect score because working on PDFs is better but not yet as easy as I need for it to be. Working with many students who have executive function challenges, I need a smooth simplistic access method. We are not quite there yet for writing on PDFs. Overall the toolbar on Read&Write is super easy to access and I love that the suite includes several tools on the toolbar providing a solution to many accessibility challenges.

The support team at Texthelp is excellent. They're all super helpful and open to feedback and new ideas. Still, more importantly, they are ultimately fully committed to aligning with us and ensuring they help us provide the best education possible. Furthermore, they're open to new features and always communicate this incredibly well.

It was easy to learn to use

It took a solid 2 weeks for R&W to work on our students chromebooks even after reaching out to tech support. The toolbar was greyed out and not accessible to students. Took a long time before tech support helped us solve this problem.

They offer what it takes to generate quality content in no time. And how to create an attractive and persuasive copy that turns readers into customers.

We are still learning how to use Equatio. I am not a mathematician and therefore I am finding understanding it a bit more difficult. Once I understand how to use it I will be able to cascade it down. My hope is that it will be as useful as Read & Write

The pricing is reasonable. A lower tier with just screen reading and basic functions would be nice, but not a deal-breaker.

The product can be used on as many devices at once as needed

• Show searches and content relevant to the main keyword which makes a great deal to extract data from them easily by just going through it.
• Robust system with having all the functions available in it. I can easily search the relevant tool easily by just clicking on different tabs and go on the right tool.
• There are no such complications and a learning curve attaches to it while writing or searching for good content.

• We are early to deploying Read&Write but hope to see increased test scores
• We are early to deploying Read&Write but hope to see decreases in student behaviors triggered by challenging ELA assignments
• We are early to deploying Read&Write but hope to see improvements in student self perception as a result of increased ELA success
