Speech-to-text
Overview
Speech-to-text takes the input from voice recognition and produces text. It recognizes the user's voice and translates it into digitized text, which is different from voice recognition that could produce actions. Speech-to-text can support adult learners with and without physical impairments, especially in Composition, while also increasing independence, decreasing anxiety, and developing a Learner Mindset with the error correction process embedded in the software. Voice interfaces can support asynchronous online communication and expression, immediate feedback, and Social and Relationship Skills.
