“…The analysis of the data, both the analysis of quantitative and qualitative, finally resulted that most participants accept Catalan text-to-speech audio description as an alternative solution to the standard human-voiced audio description. However, natural voices (not the Text2Speech voice), based on the study, got statistically higher scores than synthetic voices (the Text2Speech) and are still the preferred solution (Torne & Matamala, 2015;Arbie et al, 2013;Gelan, 2011;Hasanah & Jaroji, 2016). Natural voices from humans are easier to understand (high score) than Text2Speech voices.…”

The research on the development of "Listening" practice using Text2Speech Applications aims to develop teaching of English, ‘Listening’ for teachers and students who are not experts in the field of information technology. This study tries to discuss how to adopt and adapt Text-to-Speech software / applications in teaching and learning of English. Text2Speech is a computer application (software) that makes it possible to convert written text into spoken text so that it can be heard. By using the Text2Speech application, written text in MS Word format can be converted into spoken text. Text2Speech allows any text to be read in a computer-synthesized voice. By utilizing Text2Speech, written text can be read and sounded so that it can be heard by the user. Text2Speech allows users to determine how to pronounce a word, phrase, sentence, and even text or parts of text. By utilizing the Text2Speech application, teachers and students get "listening" learning materials in native speakers' voices, so that students get used to hearing "listening" teaching materials from native speakers.

“…The studies focused specifically on reviewing authentication methods and the level of accessibility with which they are designed, with the aim of demonstrating the challenges faced by people with dyslexia when authenticating on a website. Another particular study had as its main objective to present Text to Speech technologies to integrate into websites, and therefore, to serve as an assisted guide for people who present difficulties during reading as is the case of dyslexics (9) (10) (11) (12). Of the studies that were dedicated to presenting original software solutions to improve web accessibility for dyslexics, 60% (6 documents) belonged to browser extensions.…”

As the digital age advances, the internet has become a vital source of information and social participation; And with it, opportunities and benefits are manifested that can only be obtained through this single means. That is why it is essential to ensure that everyone can have equal access and opportunities when browsing the web. This review focuses on investigating the current state of knowledge of web accessibility for people with dyslexia. To achieve this, various computer solutions, design recommendations and study of web accessibility guidelines were reviewed, whose main objective is to improve the experience of users with dyslexia when browsing the web. A total of 120 original articles were extracted from the Scopus database, of which 22 studies met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that many of the web design customization options provided by these solutions were able to improve the web browsing and reading experience for people with dyslexia. In conclusion, this RSL allowed to identify a large number of software-based solutions and design recommendations to provide accessibility to people with dyslexia. Among the most important factors considered in these studies is the organization of content, typography and color contrast. Additionally, it is important to highlight the need to continue adjusting these proposals according to the different opinions and suggestions provided by the participants during the evaluations. And finally, it is recommended to obtain larger samples of participants so that, in this way, more representative results can be obtained during future research.
