Abstract	One strategy for the support of specific learning difficulties (SLD) students in tertiary education is to provide access to voice recognition software (VRS). VRS is computing software which with the assistance of a microphone, converts the spoken language into computer applications such as word processing. VRS lets the operator dictate directly into word processing software avoiding the need to use the keyboard for typing. Most applications type at least 70 wpm which is faster than the average typing speed. VRS has possibilities to alleviate some of the problems associated with the assimilation of information by tertiary students with SLD. The software spells accurately, and some applications of the software have audio feedback which makes proof checking easier, especially for SLDs who have reading difficulties.
