Unlike other software packages that are
purely assistive in nature, ReadOn
incorporates specific learning
strategies (refer to the "Learning
Vortex") to help people overcome reading
problems. In other words ReadOn helps a
person learn to read, as well as being
an assistive tool.
Reading is a complex process and when
this process is not mastered, students
will struggle to become independent
readers. Regardless of reading level,
ReadOn allows the student to experience
reading with minimal supervision and
support. Mistakes can be made and risks
taken hopefully resulting in an
increased willingness to read, as well
as improved reading ability and a boost
in self esteem.
- ReadOn is not available for Mac
computers
