  • Learning Is Fun!

    Funded Nov 30, 2022

    Thank you all so very much for your generous donations towards our speech therapy room's project. I really appreciate it and I know my students are going to be super excited when they see what's in store for them. We've been ready to try some fun new activities in speech and you have made it possible. Again, thank you all so much!”

    With gratitude,

  • Everyone Needs a Voice: Technology HELPs!

    Funded Dec 9, 2021

    Technology can never replace skilled evaluation and intervention by a Speech-Language Pathologist however, it most certainly can enhance learning during therapy sessions especially for an ever changing and evolving generation.

    My students and I have been so excited and happy to implement the iPad more  throughout our therapy sessions. Sometimes students get tired, just as clinicians do, of flashcards, paper based activities, and the same routine.  Bringing out the iPad changed things up a bit. The students were even more excited and intrigued. Their faces lit up with huge smiles even though the activity was a simple flashcard app. The delivery was different and that is what made the difference.

    Our speech room iPad will also be used in treatment to help improve speech sound production and motor speech planning. The students will get to see and hear training videos and visuals for practice. I will also be using simple flashcard based apps that teach different concepts and have great images that can be applied to a number of articulation, fluency, and language lessons. Reading and listening comprehension, problem solving, vocabulary and so much more speech and/ or language based instruction will be addressed through the use of our new iPad. Let me not forget, the students will also be rewarded with a little game time and they're always excited about game time!

    I could go on and on, but I would just like to again say thank you all so much for contributing and giving so generously to my project. It has been well worth it. We appreciate you.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Goings

Technology has become very important in education as well as therapy. The COVID-19 pandemic quickly demonstrated why online education should be a vital part of teaching and learning. By integrating technology into existing curricula and lessons as opposed to using it solely as a crisis-management tool, Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) and educators can harness online learning as a powerful educational tool. The effective use of digital learning tools in therapy can increase student engagement, help SLPs improve their plans for therapy sessions, and facilitate personalized learning. It also helps students build essential 21st-century skills. Technology such as iPads helps to give nonverbal students a voice. Virtual speech therapy, video, AAC, and other technology tools can not only make therapy sessions more lively, they can also promote academic growth, enhance student interests, create more inclusive learning environments that foster collaboration and inquisitiveness, and enable SLPs to collect data on student performance.
