Alternative formats are now available for students to customize their learning experience. There are a variety of formats that will benefit students of all types:
Immersive Reader
Immersive Reader allows students to customize text preferences, grammar options, and reading preferences. Text preferences allow students to change the appearance of color, size, and spacing of coursework. Grammar options are perfect for English-language learners, giving students the ability to toggle on/off visibly breaking words into syllables as well as highlighting and labeling different parts of speech. Reading preferences control the speed and language of audio to the listener of the course content.

Audio Podcast
Great for students on the go, the Audio Podcast format allows students to download MP3s of their assigned course content and listen from anywhere. MP3s can be uploaded to cellphones or used for offline listening.
Gradient Reader
Studies have shown that readers of all ages struggle to process information in large, unbroken chunks of text, leading to readers skimming through content or skipping to the end. Gradient Reader applies a gradient effect to the text color on a page to aid visual tracking, improve speed and comprehension, and decrease screen fatigue.
Other Formats
Other formats include PDF, Text File, EPUB, Braille, Language Translations, and more.
