'''Immersive reader''' is an accessibility feature integrated into various [[Minecraft:Microsoft]] products that allows readers to open text in an accessible format. In {{Edu}}, immersive reader can be activated by clicking the Immersive Reader button in [[Minecraft:NPC]] dialouge prompts, or by pressing {{Keys|I}} when looking at a [[Minecraft:sign]] or [[Minecraft:chalkboard]]. A list of features enabled per [[Minecraft:language]] in ''Minecraft Education'' can be found on the Microsoft Support site.<ref>{{Cite|url=https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/education/learning-accelerators/languages-and-products-supported-by-immersive-reader#minecraft-education-edition|section=Minecraft Education Edition|title=Languages and products supported by Immersive Reader|website=Microsoft Support}}</ref>

== Features ==
=== Read Aloud ===
Clicking a word and pressing the play button at the bottom of the screen will activate the Read Aloud feature.

=== Text Preferences ===
The "Text Preferences" option menu can be opened by clicking the top right icon in the Immersive Reader. Here, the text size, spacing, font (with options of Calibri, Sitka, and Comic Sans available), background, and ability to show source formatting can be adjusted. The default options are a text size of 42, increased spacing enabled, a white background, and show source formatting enabled.

=== Grammar Options ===
The "Grammar Options" menu can be opened by clicking the top right icon in the Immersive Reader. An option to seperate words by syllables (for example, the text "mooshroom" will show as "moosh·room") can be turned on. In the "Parts of Speech" selection menu, options for highlighting nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs show in text can be individually enabled. By default, these will show as purple, red, green, and gold respectively with the default color changeable. A "Show Labels" option exists, which (when coloring is enabled) labels those parts as speech with "n.", "v.", "adj.", and "adv.", respectively. By default, all options in the "Grammar Options" menu are disabled.

=== Reading Preferences ===
The "Reading preferences" menu can be opened by clicking the top right icon in the Immersive Reader. Line focus can be adjusted, which will gray out all but the selected one, three, or five lines (depending on the settings) for ease of reading. The menu also allows for translation to another language either by word or the document as a whole.

==== Picture Dictionary ====

When the Picture Dictionary option is enabled (which by default it is) in the "Reading Preferences" menu, clicking select words will show an image representing the word. While many images are generic representations of a word with the copyright held by Boardmaker, some are specific to ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft]]'' mobs or items and are indicated with "© Mojang" in the bottom right corner of the image. These ''Minecraft''-specific images show both in ''Minecraft Education'' and other Microsoft products with support for Picture Dictionary. A list of such images is given below.
