TestTalker
Freedom Scientific (publisher of WYNN scan/read software)has
released a software product designed to help individuals experience
more success with test taking, worksheet completion, and electronic
form completion. TestTalker uses the same bi-modal approach as WYNN
– simultaneously highlighting words as they are spoken aloud.
Essentially, TestTalker provides a talking, computerized version of
a test, worksheet or other form that can be completed electronically.
TestTalker is unique because it contains two modules - a Teacher Edition
for creating tests and a Student Edition for taking tests. The Teacher
Edition allows teachers to either scan in or open computer created
tests and configure them so students can complete the tests electronically.
The Student Edition reads the test aloud and enables students to answer
the questions on the computer. The completed documents can then be
printed for assessment. The program supports True/False, Multiple
Choice, Fill-in, and Extended Answers.
TestTalker is an invaluable accommodation tool that maintains the
integrity of the written test by not modifying content. By providing
electronic versions of tests, worksheets and forms, the program enables
students with learning disabilities to experience greater success
in their
academic endeavors.
Price: $399 (single copy)
