SpeakIt! is a Google Chrome extension that converts speech into text. It reads out loud written text from webpages. 

In education, students could use SpeakIt! to have written information read out to them instead of having to read it in their heads.

SpeakIt! can remove barriers for students who struggle with visual information, especially reading, and for students who prefer auditory information (auditory learners).

There is no limit on user ages.
