I helped develop software for LD people called WYNN. It is
particularly strong in enlargement and combining the display of the
enlarged text with the audio. It is much easier to learn to use than
other options, because we were driven in the design by teachers, other
professionals and consumers, rather than by engineers. Since I'm
engineer, this was a painful but ultimately productive process!

I am looking for software that will be easily used by students with learning
disabilities, for example, something with audio output rather than text, or
something that would enlarge text, which is helpful for those with dyslexia.
Can anyone recommend any titles? Thanks.
Kate O'Connell
