Use Case
The Reader 2 is the all-rounder solution and provides access to all the key features of the C-Pen product. This is the most common version and is applicable in most use cases. The separate Exam Reader and Secure Reader models limit the core functionality of the device to meet other particular expectations.
The Exam Reader 2 is bright orange to signpost that this version of the C-Pen can only access the Text Reader function and does cannot store any personal files or access the dictionary.
The Secure Reader 2 is designed as a privacy focused version of the C-Pen that doesn’t store any sensitive information. It leaves no trace of personal information and is ideal for workplaces, libraries, corrections facilities and more.
Test Knowledge – Not Reading
A student who has a hard time reading the questions can hardly be expected to be able to provide proper answers. Exam Reader 2 assists the students to read the questions but offers no help with the answers. Using Exam Reader 2 with earphones enables these students to be in the same room as their piers when taking the test, saving school resources.
