Using apps in speech therapy has been proven to keep students more motivated and increase growth towards goals, as compared to traditional therapy methods. Students are exposed to more and more technology these days, and it is important to follow their lead in engaging activities. By using an iPad in speech therapy, students get immediate visual and auditory feedback that benefits progress and engagement. Also, as a speech therapist I often see groups of 4-5 students of different ages and at different skill levels. The iPad is a simple way to differentiate lessons and provide activities to students at all levels.
