BrowseAloud
If you have trouble reading online, learn how to make your computer speak back to you.
The Town of Goderich has a speech-enabled website that uses BrowseAloud, free software for people who have difficulty reading online. This includes people with mild visual impairment, people who speak English or French as a second language, or people with dyslexia or learning disabilities.
Follow the simple steps to download and install BrowseAloud.
- Once installed, as your mouse pointer moves over the words on a web page, they are spoken out loud. For most browsers, you can also choose to have the text highlighted as it is read. Or, you can ask BrowseAloud to read a complete page to you. To stop the reader at any point, just press the Ctrl key on the keyboard.
- For detailed instructions, visit the BrowseAloud website.
