The adaptive technology that I explored was a program called Kurzweil. It is a program that helps students with writing, studying, and reading assignments. At adaptive technology they take a students textbook and scan it into the program, once they scan it, they send it to the student and they are now able to use their textbook in the program Kurzweil. The program offers many things to the students such as reading the text aloud, the use of a highlighter, note taking right on the text of the page, and much more. This helps the student in comprehending their material and also understanding it. This program also offers a option to read a paper a student rote so they are able to hear their mistakes rather than just read them. When students write papers they often misspell words, and have grammar problems, having their paper read out loud through Kurzweil allows the student to hear their mistakes very easily. This program is free to all students and is a great tool to use!
