[ARCHIVED] Screen Readers for Canvas

[kbeimfohr]

I am curious what resource schools are using as a screen reader in Canvas for students needing accommodations.  There isn't anything built in Canvas and looking for suggestions for screen reader resources.  Any input is appreciated.  Thanks!

This Google Chrome Extension reads text that is entered on a page in Canvas.

This seems to work on pages where text has been entered in Canvas Rich Text Editor.
