FAQ

General Questions:

  • Can my students use Book Taco at home?

    Answer: Yes.

    You will need to provide students with their login credentials and students can access at home or school. You have an option to turn off book quizzes being able to be taken at home.

    Please note: For Clever sign on users, students will need to be able to access their Clever portals from home to access Book Taco.

  • How do my students earn game coins?

    Answer: Students earn game coins with each activity they pass or when a teacher reviews the students submitted work and awards coins. These coins can be redeemed in our Rewards page. Keep in mind teachers can customize the Rewards page settings and have the option to turn the page off completely, set to “Weekends Only” mode or limited the amount of daily play.

  • On the iPad can I disable the spelling auto correct?

    For iPad auto correct, you can turn off by:

    • Tap "Settings" on the iPad's home screen.
    • Tap "General" and "Keyboard" to access the keyboard settings menu.
    • Tap "Off" next to "Auto-Correction" to disable the iPad's spelling correction option.
    • Tap "Off" next to "Check Spelling" to disable the iPad's spell checker, if desired. With this setting off, the iPad won't alert you when you misspell a word.
  • Can I changed the voice-over?

    Voice-overs for words and sentences have been curated by Book Taco. Our book quiz text, definitions, synonyms, and antonyms (program's live text) are read aloud using the browser's TTS (Text-to-Speech) feature. If you find that any Book Taco word or sentence needs to be re-recorded, please email us at admin@booktaco.com.

    To change the voice-over for our live text, you can modify your browser's TTS settings, which will affect the voice-over throughout the program.

    How to Change Your Browser's TTS

    Every browser handles this feature a little differently, but generally, you can find this option in the 'Settings' menu.

    Here is How to Change the Chromebook TTS Setting:

    Change the language, voice, or volume for Text-to-speech:

    1. - At the bottom right, select the time or press Alt + Shift + s.
    2. - Select Settings and then Accessibility.
    3. - Under “Text-to-speech,” select Text-to-speech voice settings.
    4. - Under “Speech Engines,” select Settings and choose a voice:
      • - Chrome OS TTS: Voices have a more human-sounding quality and are very responsive.
      • - eSpeak: Voices have a more computer-generated sound and are available in a wider variety of languages.
    5. - Under “Speech Properties,” choose the rate, pitch, and volume.
