Talking word processors (TWP) are writing software programs that provide speech feedback as text is being typed. A student may choose to hear each letter, word, sentence and/or paragraph as it is typed. TWPs offers other adjustments such as enlarging size of text, changing the foreground or background color, highlighting text, different voices, rate and volume of speech.
TWPs assists students with reading difficulties in identifying and correcting grammar and spelling errors.
