Kurzweil 3000 Features and Benefits:
A powerful suite of study skill tools helps students increase their learning potential. With Kurzweil 3000, students can highlight main ideas or supporting detail in a document, and add annotations using text or by making a voice recording. Notes and highlighted text can also be extracted into a separate document for use as a study outline.
The clearest human-sounding speech makes listening to Kurzweil 3000 a pleasure. Using the acclaimed ScanSoft RealSpeak, words are spoken clearly and correctly helping to increase a student's reading speed and comprehension.
Scanning of virtually any document is made possible with the Kurzweil 3000 optical character recognition (OCR). Scanned documents and other classroom curriculum are faithfully reproduced on screen -- retaining text and pictures in their original format and color.
Dual highlighting of words in context as they are read aloud helps the student process words and concepts more easily. Recognizing that everyone learns differently, Kurzweil 3000 lets you customize how much text is highlighted and the speed at which words are spoken.
Thanks to the Kurzweil 3000 unique "Read the Web" feature, students now have access to the millions of Internet Web pages, opening up a whole world of research.
Spell checking and word prediction aid writing of class or homework. Thanks to Kurzweil 3000, students can now work independently for longer periods of time. The 175,000-word dictionary, which provides definitions, synonyms, spelling, and word syllabification provides additional support for students.
