A new feature that allows the use of Microsoft Immersive Reader when viewing items in the Modules and Pages tool has been enabled on the SIS, Continuing Education, and Training/Development instances of Canvas.

Microsoft Immersive Reader aids English reading comprehension, aids people with reading differences (such as Dyslexia), offers translations of the text, allows for color contrast and font changes, and can read aloud text and equations. A summary of the Immersive Reader implementation for Canvas is available in the Canvas Release Notes.
