Subject: [baisl] Re: Has anyone used Bookshare.org?
Bookshare is great for those who qualify. You need proof of a reading
disability. Our learning specialist set the accounts up with parents. Pretty
much every book is available through it. It's easiest to use with the Read To
Go app on the iPad. The student can read along with the audio following
highlighted text. I've had a few glitches on the chromebook, but nothing too
bad. We had it set up through a parent account and they need to be reupped each
year, but the student can access it from anywhere.
