Immersive Reader is a text read-aloud feature available in Office 365 Word Online and OneNote Online. If you have students that would benefit from a read-aloud feature, you can save a document in OneDrive and share it with those students. The students can choose Immersive Reader and have the document read aloud. Mr. Manley (8th Grade Writing) uses Immersive Reader as a revision tool for students as they review their writing. When his students have their words read back to them using the Immersive Reader, they are more successful at finding their own mistakes. He says this is an especially useful R & E tool. Options include ability to change voice type, speed, identify number of syllables and color-code the parts of speech. NOTE: Students have to have their writing open in Microsoft Word Online (in their OneDrive) to use Immersive Reader (it is also available in their email and OneNote).
