"In summary, we found a great many strengths in the ReadOn software product. As an assistive tool, we concluded that it has a great potential to provide struggling readers and writers with a motivating way to access and create texts in both home and school settings."  

"Students can choose to upload texts to be read aloud, such as e-mails, news accounts, magazine articles, and textbooks, and can select personalized settings to optimize the reading experience. In the writing mode, ReadOn gives students the all too rare opportunity to hear their own composition read aloud. This capability can serve as a proofreading aid and would certainly serve to make writing more pleasurable for the struggling writer. ReadOn also provides the capacity for textual and pictorial help with unknown vocabulary."
