Feeling Screen Fatigue?
In our new environment, we are sitting and looking at screens more than we are used to. Teaching and Learning Centre would like to highlight some alternate ways you can engage with your work.
Tired of reading on a screen?
Use text-to-speech software! Text-to-speech (TTS) takes texts and reads them to you.
