ReadSpeaker Achieves ESSA Level IV Validation Through Collaboration with Instructure

(Isstories Editorial):- Boston, Massachusetts Aug 7, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – ReadSpeaker, a leading provider of text’to’speech accessibility solutions, today announced it has achieved ESSA Level IV validation through its long’standing collaboration with Instructure‘s independent research team. ReadSpeaker’s integration with Instructure’s Canvas learning platform has long enabled inclusive access to course content for all learners. 

To determine ReadSpeaker’s evidence rating, Instructure collaborated with ReadSpeaker to create a comprehensive logic model and research plan. Following a systematic review, Instructure concluded that the evidence for ReadSpeaker meets Level IV, “Demonstrates a Rationale.” This signifies that the intervention has a well-defined, research-based logic model, and ReadSpeaker has plans for an ESSA Level III study of their product.

“We’re thrilled to achieve ESSA Level IV validation in partnership with Instructure,” said Matt Muldoon, President of ReadSpeaker North America. “This milestone underscores our commitment to delivering solutions that are not only functional but are rooted in research. With this validation, educators and districts can confidently view ReadSpeaker as a tool designed for meaningful impact.”
