I would like to implement a button that when clicked would activate android's speech to text translator like the one provided by android's keyboard. Specifically, I would like a button that would have the app transcribe what the user is saying in real time, and record it word by word (real time) in an editText box. What would be the best way to go about doing this?
Thanks

You can start using your phone’s speech to text feature right away, but you can also customize its behavior. Go to Settings > General Management > Language and input. Tap On-screen keyboard. Tap Google voice typing.
The Windows 10 Text to Speech option is called Narrator. You have to turn this Ease of Access feature on from Settings or the Control Panel. Narrator is a screen reader designed for the visually impaired, but anyone can use it to give their eyes a rest. With the Text-to-Speech features, you can navigate Windows screens, apps, and web pages.
If you want to dictate text instead of typing, turn on Windows Speech Recognition; go to Settings > Time & Language > Speech > Microphone > Get Started. Say, "Start listening," or press Win+H to bring up the dictation toolbar. For help using voice recognition for dictation, browse this list of standard Windows Speech Recognition commands.
You can also control the way the speech to text engine responds to obscene language. If a potentially offensive word is dictated, by default that word will appear with asterisks. You can control this by toggling Hide offensive words on or off.
If you have not already checked the Voice Recognition sample in your Api demos, you should go ahead and check it. It should give you a head start. The demos are available in /android-sdk/samples/... folder. If you haven't installed them, here is how you may how to install android api demo app into my phone .
There are following( any many others) tutorial as well which will help you begin:
