Our Brief

To achieve its mission, EdAdvance is committed to the “Three Cs”: Connection, Culture, and Customization. The majority of people now receive information digitally whether that’s a cell phone, computer, lobby screens, or other forms of smart devices like “Alexa” and Siri.  Successfully communicating requires making sure information is available where people are and in ways, they can access. 

At EdAdvance, they work with people of a wide range of ages, and abilities, and who may speak different languages, making digital inclusion and accessibility particularly important. 

Our Solution

To provide inclusive education, EdAdvance implemented Recite Me Toolbar on their website to provide accessible resources to all learners, regardless of disabilities, learning difficulties, and language barriers. 

Recite Me assistive technology includes screen reading functionality, multiple reading aids, customizable styling options, and an on-demand live translation feature that boasts over 100 languages, 65 of which can be read aloud.
