A student with intellectual disabilities ""reads"" an online newspaper each morning by using software that speaks the words aloud. What type of assistive technology is the student using?

The student is using a Text-To-Speech (TTS) assistive technology.

Explanation:

Text-To-Speech assistive technology (TTS) comprises software that serves the purpose of reading the words on the screen of a phone, tablet or computer comprehensively loud to the user.

The technology is mostly used by students with intellectual disabilities. For example, those who cannot read or struggle with decoding.  

Through comprehensively reading out words, TTS software helps students with intellectual disabilities to focus on what the words mean instead of over-using their little brain power in decoding/sounding out the words.
