 Conversation Planner provides: - A step-by-step introduction to all the key components of a conversation: how to start, how to finish, how to repair conversation problems, how to know your talking partner is ready, etc. - A focus on perspective-taking. Learners identify the conversation goals for themselves, their talking partners as well as the expectations of other people around them. - Students learn and practice their skills using more than 150 real-world, age-appropriate scenarios. - Students progress only when mastery of the current skill is demonstrated. - 'At a glance' reporting shows you instantly how your learner is progressing. - The fun Reward Center motivates even hesitant learners. Most exciting, this app offers independent mode AND therapist mode. In independent mode, answers are displayed and the learner taps the correct answer. In therapist mode, no answers are displayed. For each question, the student answers orally and the therapist taps whether the learner's oral answer was correct or incorrect. Both modes earn coins for the Reward Center. Our apps are designed for and tested by typical and special needs children. Testers include children with Autism and other special needs. Our apps work for them! Our apps are also suitable for adults dealing with aphasia or learning English as a Second Language.

The developer of the only clinically-validated language therapy application MITA that was downloaded by over 3 million families, brings you a series of Speech Therapy apps: Speech Therapy Step 1 – Preverbal exercises Speech Therapy Step 2 – Learn to sequence sounds Speech Therapy Step 3 – Learn to say 500+ words Speech Therapy Step 4 – Learn to say complex words Speech Therapy Step 5 – Record your own model words and exercise articulation Speech Therapy Step 4 is for children who already learned many words and want to exercise on their articulation. HOW IT WORKS? Speech Therapy Step 4 uses 1000+ prerecorded video exercises. These videos encourage children to mirror words’ pronunciation. A proprietary AI algorithm measures similarity between model words and children’s vocalizations. Improvements are rewarded with reinforcers and PlayTime. This technique was demonstrated to improve speech production in toddlers, late talkers (speech delay), children with Apraxia of Speech, Stuttering, Autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome, Sensory Processing Disorder, Dysarthria. Video exercises are followed by a PlayTime. Improvements in performance are rewarded with reinforcers and a longer PlayTime. In order to achieve a longer PlayTime, children try to improve their articulation. In this way the app works autonomously all the time encouraging children to improve articulation. LEARN WITH SPEECH THERAPY STEP 4 - The only speech therapy app that rewards your child proportionally to the improvement of their articulation. - Uses scientifically proven video modeling for effective speech development. - Voice-activated functionality provides a fun, interactive learning experience. - The app basic version is completely FREE! - No ads. SCIENTIFICALLY-PROVEN LEARNING TECHNIQUES Speech Therapy Step 4 uses video modeling to create an immersive learning environment. When children watch model videos in real time, their MIRROR NEURONS are engaged. This is scientifically proven to be highly effective in speech development. FROM THE DEVELOPERS OF THE CLINICALLY-VALIDATED LANGUAGE THERAPY APPLICATION MITA Speech Therapy Step 4 is developed by Dr. A. Vyshedskiy, a neuroscientist from Boston University; R. Dunn, a Harvard-educated early-child-development specialist; MIT-educated, J. Elgart and a group of award-winning artists and developers working alongside experienced therapists.
