Accessibility Tools for Students

There are many tools for students to provide them a strong education especially when in need of accessibility support. I’ve dug deep to find the best accessibility tools that can help students and make completing their work less difficult. Sonocent is an audio notetaking platform that students can use if they struggle to take notes or have a disability that doesn’t allow them to. Using the built-in microphone in our computers, Sonocent uses that audio to write notes. However, it is a costly tool but provides students a lot of assistance with note-taking. Another similar tool is Glean, which provides a free trial for students. JAWS is a fantastic resource for students with vision loss to know what’s on their screen. JAWS reads the screen content for students and helps to better education for those with disabilities. Microsoft provides many accessibility tools for students as well. They provide highlighting text, reading passages aloud, and provide many visual references for those viewing them on Microsoft. Zoomtext is another tool that provides screen magnification on devices. Many computers come with this accessibility tool and is very useful for people of all ages.
