Built-In Accessibility Features
AI-Learners includes features like text-to-speech, color contrast adjustments (This feature is a GAME CHANGER), and alternative input methods to ensure that all students can access and engage with the content.

I love that you can toggle between real images and clipart for sorting games, increase and decrease font sizes, change color contrast, and decrease visual complexity settings.

AI Learners just launched a new feature for social narratives! Teachers can choose from a library of premade stories and the stories are read aloud. They can also create personalized stories based on their students and use multiple choice to assess afterwards.

The creator of AI Learners, Adele, with her sister Lara.

Unlike other AI programs available, this one is really created with self-contained classrooms in mind. The creator has a younger sister with Rett Syndrome, which inspired her to create a tool that is accessible for students of all abilities (especially in special education classrooms). Adele stressed to me that it is very important to her that the tool is inclusive for all, and that’s something that we love to hear at Simply Special Ed.
