Join me on My EdTech Life as I welcome Ted Dinsmore to discuss the groundbreaking Reading XR platform. In this episode, we explore how Reading XR, a head-mounted reading assessment tool, is revolutionizing how we understand and address reading impairments. Utilizing the HoloLens 2 headset, Reading XR tracks eye movements to provide insights into reading challenges. We'll discuss its user-friendly features, including graphical results, video replays, and voice command functionality, making it accessible for kids, educators, and clinicians. Ted will share insights into how this technology, building on the legacy of tools like Visagraph, enhances reading comprehension through its innovative use of augmented reality and gamification. Whether you're a parent, educator, or just passionate about EdTech, this episode promises to be an eye-opener into the future of reading assessment and intervention.
