In this section is a listing of Assistive Technology functions (with support information) that can help with reading and writing tasks when using a digital device. In Quebec schools the main software being used for teaching writing is either MS WORD (desktop or web) or Google Docs (web).
Some of these features are built into MS WORD. Others are software based and need to be installed on your device in order to work with the word-processing application being used. When using Google Docs, being web based, extensions can be added to the browser that will provide some of these features.
