Case Study: The Virtual High School improves accessibility for students with IEPs with ReadSpeaker

The Virtual High School adds text-to-speech to 200 courses in 15 seconds with ReadSpeaker

The Virtual High School (VHS), an entirely online school, faced a challenge making text-heavy course material accessible for students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). To address this, VHS turned to ReadSpeaker's text-to-speech technology.

ReadSpeaker provided a solution that was easily implemented across the vast majority of VHS courses. The service was an immediate hit, with students using the bimodal learning approach to better remember material. After a wider rollout, usage grew organically, and over 80% of students successfully complete their VHS courses. ReadSpeaker allowed VHS to leverage existing assets in new ways, making courses suitable for all learners.
