“My Study Bar integrates mind mapping software (using Xmind) and text-to-speech software (using Balabolka). Word prediction software, a typing tutor, screen colour changer and a magnifier are all integrated into one handy portable set of tools. Yes - you really can put My Study Bar onto a USB stick and take it around with you! It is very helpful to international students and students unable to access the DSA support. We hope My Study Bar will continue to play a big role in improving accessibility for all!”
