The ATRC is dedicated to supporting you in online courses. We recognize that online courses may be new and may present some challenges for you. Please be assured that the ATRC is available to support your ability to access online coursework.
In addition to our in-person services, we are continuing to provide meetings by phone or in an online meeting via Microsoft Teams or Zoom.
During the scheduling of your appointment, coordinate with us to determine whether a phone or online meeting will work best for you. You will receive appointment reminders as usual regardless of which meeting type you prefer.
CSU is piloting ReadSpeaker, a campus-wide online text to speech tool built directly into Canvas. ReadSpeaker’s TextAid tool and web extension read other websites, PDFs, and other documents aloud. It is mobile browser compatible, so users can listen on the go.
ReadSpeaker allows streaming to mp3, extracting highlights, visual adjustments, and much more. Check out ReadSpeaker for Canvas for details.
