For example, students learning Chinese often have difficulties with the huge numbers of characters that one must learn to read Chinese. For these students, Chinese enabled screen readers could read authentic web content to them, allowing them to access authentic resources in the target language despite their difficulties comprehending the writing system. Another example is students learning Russian. For these students, it is possible to learn the writing system in a relatively short time, but it requires opportunities to receive linguistic input both visually and aurally to enable students to make a site- sound correspondence. In the same way as students of Russian, those learning how to read for the first time in their native language also need comprehensible input of spoken and written speech.
Screen readers can be one way to provide that input.
Screen readers can also be used by learners as a check- after they read a screen, they can ask their screen reader to read it to them to check how well they were able to read and comprehend it. Finally, I noticed when using ReadPlease that having the computer read part of my paper out loud helped me find a typo I had overlooked, so screen readers can be beneficial in helping any computer user locate their typos and mistakes. There are some important points to keep in mind when designing web content to make sure that it is accessible to people using screen readers. First of all, limit your use of images, and put all important information as text, instead of graphics with text in them. This is because screen readers read text and can not interpret graphics.
