Hello List:

I am reviewing some assistive software and am wondering if anyone on the
Tech List has used WYNN with adult new readers. WYNN is published by Freedom
Scientific (www.freedomscientific.com/wynn) and can read aloud text
documents. It also has a range of visual tools to assist struggling readers.
Any feedback, ideas for effective use, etc. would be much appreciated.

Best,

Emily
