Industry Firsts and Patented Technology Lead Market in Providing Literacy Software Optimized for Web Access & Learning
Palo Alto, CA – May 22, 2006 -- The Learning Systems Group of Freedom Scientific, Inc., developer of literacy software designed to create custom learning environments for struggling students, announced today the release of the newest version of WYNN software. WYNN 5 brings unprecedented advancements in the delivery of Web-based content to individuals who struggle to read. This first-of-its kind product assists special education students with reading Internet content, and gives them important study tools to help them learn in a Web-based environment.
Students are increasingly accessing the Internet to study and learn. According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project, 43 million U.S. children under age 18 use the Internet. And 94% of them between the ages of 12 – 17 have used the Internet for school. Freedom Scientific’s Learning Systems Group, with the development of this latest version of WYNN optimized for Internet-based studying and learning, is demonstrating its commitment to remain at the forefront in providing support to students who struggle, wherever they are learning.
Literacy Support Tools Help Struggling Students Read the Internet
WYNN 5 is the first product that fully integrates all the support capabilities of a powerful literacy software program into the Internet, rather than merely superimposing "floating" tool bars on the text. With WYNN 5, students can have Web text read out loud as well as access the study tools that they rely on for their traditional classroom work, like dictionary and highlighting features. WYNN 5 is also the only software that offers struggling students WebMasking™. This patented feature highlights selected text on a Web page by line, sentence or paragraph while blocking out distracting elements like advertisements. This enables the reader to better focus, read and comprehend text.
