In this session we will be going hands-on with two tools currently available for BCS students, Read&Write and Orbitnote. With the use of these tools we will be exploring the lyrics behind the global sensation, the one and only Taylor Swift!

Read&Write is a literacy support tool that offers help with everyday tasks like reading text out loud, understanding unfamiliar words, researching assignments and proofing written work.

OrbitNote allows you to transform and interact with PDF documents to create an accessible, dynamic and collaborative space that works for everyone.

Before attending, please be sure to apply for Free-for-Teacher Access of Read&Write using this link: https://www.texthelp.com/products/free-for-teachers/read-and-write/

Additionally, please download the Read&Write and Orbitnote Google Chrome Extensions
