Open with ReadSpeaker (also know as DocReader & webReader) is an assistance app which will read text to you from anywhere in Brightspace.  

Simply highlight what you want to read and hit the button, or right click and choose "Read Selection", and the program will read the highlighted text to you.

A free ReadSpeaker extension is also available for Edge & Chrome which will read websites in the browser for you as well.  It can be found at:
