Product Information

The innovative design of the C-Pen makes it suitable for learners aged 6 or over. The manufacturers of the C-Pen have managed to keep the pen light weight so that younger children can easily grip it and don’t struggle to control it. They have also, unlike many other similar devices, installed a camera, which means users don’t have to be so precise with their scanning. There is no need for children to struggle with reading when the pen can do that for them. Instead of focusing on the very act of reading, children will be able to focus on the content. Additionally, C-Pen readers are quite helpful when it comes to visual impairments as well. While the device may be hooked up to and function on some android devices, by and large the C-Pen reader is not really supported on most mobile devices, such as iPhones and iPads. The company does have a product dedicated to that, called the Connect, but in this mobile centric age we still find it a bit odd that the Reader is not more mobile-oriented. IMPROVED USER INTERFACE: Our upgraded design now includes an icon-based menu to make navigating easy for those with literacy differences or visual impairments. All the settings are in one place so you can toggle functions with just the touch of a button.

C-pens are one of many ways to overcome reading disabilities such as dyslexia since the pen can easily read a line of text to you aloud. Even if you are in a crowded space, you can always plug in your headphones and increase the volume. A C Pen reader is a pen that scans text and can turn it into written words. It is commonly used for people with reading difficulties such as students with dyslexia. How do you use a Reader Pen? The device then stores the scanned text (which you can upload later), processes it, and then reads it out loud through an inbuilt speaker. It can also look up the words and read the definitions to you. This is a great way to both learn new words and hear how they are pronounced.The text you scan can be saved then uploaded to a computer via USB. I’ve actually had a few students simply scan the important phrases or paragraphs they need while studying, then upload them as study notes. I thought that was a cool and innovative use of the pen. Frequently Asked Questions Who should use a C Pen Reader? FAST SPEAK OPTION: Increase the speed of the voice so it reads text out loud more fluently for increased efficiency It is well proven that multi-sensory learning is far more efficient than single-sensory learning. Listen to word or paragraphs being read out to you while at the same time visually following along on the screen or in the textbook – and learn faster. The concept of the C-Pen is built around the need to help students improve their reading skills, such that in 2015, PISA identified that 18% of 15-year-olds in England still fail to achieve the minimum level of literacy proficiency.

Become a fluent and independent reader and improve literacy with the help of ReaderPen. What is ReaderPen? This review will outline my pros and cons of the C-Pen reader. These are my experiences only – but my goal is to give you a good idea of whether this reader is right for you. C-Pen Reader Review What I liked… One thing we do appreciate, and it goes to show the thought that has gone into this device, is the fact that it can be set for right or left handed modes. Often built for right handed users, these kinds of devices can often be hard for left handed adults to use, let alone kids.

Don’t expect to use the pen on handwritten text. In fact, don’t expect it to work on fancy printed text or even cursive printed text. It’ll work fine for simple text (like the text you’re reading now) and common fonts like Arial, Tahoma and Calibri.
