A project-based unit where 6th-grade students use text-to-speech technology to access and analyze complex informational texts. Students develop research skills, digital literacy, and metacognitive awareness of their own learning tools.
This sequence shifts the focus from assistive technology to the cognitive strategies required for auditory learning. Students engage in inquiry-based activities to distinguish between passive hearing and active listening, applying specific comprehension strategies while using text-to-speech (TTS) to access grade-level texts.
A 4th-grade sequence focused on using Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology as a multi-sensory reading comprehension tool. Students learn to synchronize visual tracking with audio, visualize content through pauses, clarify vocabulary, re-read for evidence, and summarize narratives.
This sequence guides 9th-grade students through the cognitive strategies of using Text-to-Speech (TTS) for deep comprehension. It moves from basic bi-modal tracking to advanced digital annotation and genre-specific strategy adaptation, culminating in a rigorous auditory comprehension assessment.
This sequence equips graduate students with the pedagogical and administrative skills to integrate text-to-speech (TTS) effectively within K-12 settings. It moves from mechanical operational training to strategic metacognitive instruction, psychosocial management, and data-driven evaluation, culminating in a school-wide implementation plan.
A comprehensive sequence for undergraduate special education students focused on tailoring text engagement and annotation strategies for learners with SLD, ADHD, and visual processing needs. Students analyze case studies, evaluate assistive technologies, and design bespoke support plans.
A 5-lesson sequence for 11th-grade students transitioning from physical math manipulatives to virtual tools. The curriculum emphasizes digital literacy, strategic tool selection, and self-advocacy to prepare students for post-secondary academic environments.
