Overall Satisfaction with Read&Write

We use this in our school for staff and students to use in daily tasks/lessons and assessments. The features available are useful in all subject areas and give students man opportunities in the day to work independently. Our neurodivergent/low vision students love using this tool regularly to complete learning tasks.

Pros

  • The 'rewordify' feature is excellent for supporting students doing research tasks and deciphering webpages with lots of information
  • The screen reading tool and AI enhanced voices make longer texts easier/faster to process
  • The dictionary and picture dictionary tool helps our second language learners understand new vocabulary

Cons

  • Sometimes the talk&type takes a while to register that you're speaking, even if you've clicked onto the page and started talking
  • The dictionary tool provides literal meanings, it would be great if it could contextualise the meaning of the word
  • There is no scope in any of the features for Te Reo Māori yet
  • There has been increased engagement with students using this tool in research tasks in several subject areas.
  • Our neurodivergent students are able to access work online more independently
  • Our staff are engaging with several features in their learning task creation
It has made working with our students easier because the tool can provide translation/dictionary definitions. These are our high frequency questions in a classroom, so giving them a tool to seek these answers themselves gives the teacher more time to support deeper thinking/understanding in their subject area.
One of our severely Dyslexic students uses this tool to make vice notes for most of her assessments across her subjects. Instead of typing/reading the assessment, she uses the screen reader and voice note tool to record her answers/understanding of the content. The tool has enabled both the teacher and herself to access the curriculum without the barrier of reading/writing.
We use the screenshot reader often in our classes. Things like drama scripts, music sheets or other pdf's can be read online through the screenshot reader.

Do you think Read&Write delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Read&Write's feature set?

Yes

Did Read&Write live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Read&Write go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Read&Write again?

Yes

It's great for teaching and learning for students that need to communicate their understanding in other ways. At the moment, we don't use Google Classroom or have managed school laptops, so we can't use the Data desk to control the extension during assessments. Having the ability to use data desk without google classroom would be great for us.
