Capti Solutions for Education
Accommodations
Many students entering college or university require accommodations and modifications to get the most out of their academic experience. There are many different types of accommodations for students with learning disabilities that range from special software and platforms to hardware and switch systems. What important to note about accommodations is that they don’t change the actual content or performance expectations, just the way that the information is presented.
Capti Voice includes modifications for students such as having the option for a larger print size, increasing contrast of the words on a page, and using text-to-speech. Capti goes beyond special education accommodations by not only offering in-app modifications, but by integrating with Bookshare. Capti also grants qualifying students the opportunity to read general education books on their own and maintain their academic independence.
