    Please make all student online materials text to speech. We want disabled students to be able to access all the same information as their neurotypical counterparts. They might not be able to read the question, but when given them verbally they can answer the question. Many of our students have the accommodation of text to speech or tests/ quizzes read and this would help everyone out.

    This enhancement is essential. It is available in virtually all apps that require students to read so that the material is accessible to students who function at all reading levels. There are many learning disabled students who are able to perform math calculations; however, reading the word problems holds them back. Speech to text is the missing link to success for these students.

Quick Check Audio Button

Merged
Students need support in reading, so allowing for an audio button for each question on the quick check would help struggling readers to listen and understand the problem.

Read aloud and translation for digital interactivities and assessment items

Merged
To help make our content accessible to more students, it would be helpful to add the read aloud feature to digital interactives (including details within the interactive) and assessment items. Better yet, add audio AND translation.

Add audio

Hello, I have 4th grade students who have IEPs and they need all assessments (unit assessments, quizzes, and progress check-ups) to be read to them. Is there a feature on Savvas that allows you to do this?

Making ALL texts accessible to students with reading disabilities by creating speech text and text speech options. For example the essential question or the generalized do not come with a read aloud feature and text boxes do not allow for students...

read aloud is not available for all content.

Merged
It would be very beneficial if all the tests, assignments etc were read aloud as its taking a lot of man hours for staff to read this to students that need it.

add text to speech voice read to all assessments

Right now, only directions are read aloud to students. It would be helpful if all questions and answers are read aloud to studens when assessments are assigned online.

Enable Audio on Quiz and Test Questions

Merged
Audio is available in the text, but special education students need the test/quiz read to them. Enabling audio on these would be helpful.
