Dyslexia Awareness Month is an annual event aimed to further the understanding of dyslexia. To promote dyslexia awareness, head over to the Rhatigan Student Center from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 10 to the Office of Student Accommodations & Testing informational table.
It will also promote Kurzweil 3000 during the tabling event. Kurzweil 3000 is an assistive technology and learning literacy tool recommended for students who have difficulties reading (ESL, dyslexia, etc.). It is designed to help students learn course materials in school. With functions such as text-to-speech, highlighting and integrated notetaking and brainstorming, the assistive technology enables students with learning difficulties to fully engage in what they are learning and to focus on the tasks at hand. The program is available to all WSU students.
