Description

Microsoft has created free, accessible built-in tools to support students of all abilities with reading, writing, and communication! This session will showcase Microsoft learning tools for the inclusive classroom, including Immersive Reader, dictation and captioning. We will also highlight the newly released, Reading Progress tool which enables easy progress monitoring of students.  You will learn how these free tools can be used to support classroom engagement of students with learning differences, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, and non-native speakers.  Details, demonstrations and student examples will be shared about these capabilities across Microsoft 365 products.  These tools are also accessible with Chromebooks, iPads and Macs.
