Can MS Forms use dictate to complete answers?

Question

We are using MS Forms for some of our assessments. This is having a hugely negative impact on dyslexic students who can't spell, as the answers are only marked correct if the spelling is correct. Is there a way around this?

Hi Marie Ash,
Thank you for reaching out to us on the Microsoft Q&A platform.

To accommodate dyslexic students using Microsoft Forms, you can:

• Allow multiple correct answers in text questions to account for spelling variations.
• Use Multiple Choice questions to eliminate spelling issues altogether.
• Manually review and adjust answers for minor spelling mistakes.
• Enable Text-to-Speech or the Immersive Reader tool for better accessibility.
• Encourage students to use spell check or dictation tools before submitting answers.
