What special features does ReadOn offer?

ReadOn offers a number of tools that work together to assist in the process of learning to read.

ReadOn’s configurable, multi-user support makes it an ideal addition to the computer lab or classroom. ReadOn can be customized to suit each student’s needs, and those settings saved for later use. Personalised settings and individual progress are recorded on an ongoing basis. This personalized multi-user support, allows teachers, parents and facilitators to control which supports are available to each student at any time.

ReadOn uses word, phrase and paragraph highlighting to remove any distraction from the surrounding text while reading. Students can easily focus on the current word, phrase or paragraph, rather than being distracted by all the other text on the page.

When moving through the text, highlighting can be set to either the full word, phrase or paragraph, or can include a sweeping of the word where each letter is highlighted one at a time. ReadOn also offers a spell reading option, where each letter of a word is named and highlighted, before the whole word is read.
