Can students replay a specific paragraph with Text-to-Speech instead of starting from the beginning?

Yes! Students don't need to relisten to the whole passage. Once they press play on the read aloud feature, a soundbar appears in the reader panel that lets them move to any part of the text.

  • Jump to a specific section: Tap or scroll along the soundwave bar to go directly to the part of the text they want to hear.

This makes it easy for students with accommodations to reread a specific paragraph while working through questions.
