Microsoft's Immersive Reader provides great support for many learners but it doesn't have a Scottish accent voice or a Scottish Gaelic voice. Let's ask Microsoft to be more inclusive of languages and accents - more details at https://t.co/Q406n9bPDw

[CALL Scotland @CALLScotland]

We're campaigning for @MicrosoftEDU to include Scottish accents and Scottish Gaelic voices in Immersive Reader. Please read Paul's persuasive blog below and then RT to make our voices heard 💪😃

When supporting young people and adults, it is important to remember that all behaviour is communication. Sometimes that communication is a trauma or stress response within the brain. Please see our blog as we will be adding more resources soon.

It is ok to feel our feelings and emotions. By pushing our emotions and feelings down, we only do ourselves and others a disservice. We need to feel our feelings in order to manage our emotions.

Sorry for the overload of emotions (and tweets!)
