UPDATE (08/22): The promo code giveaway for this app has ended. Winners have been announced - see comments. Thanks everyone for participating!
So Much 2 Say by Close 2 Home Apps, LLC (iTunes App Store, iPad, $39.99) is an augmentative alternative communication (AAC) or picture communication app designed specifically for individuals with cognitive and speech impairments. Additionally, this app was developed with two distinct classes of users in mind: Learner & Administrator. The primary user is the Learner him/herself. The Administrator is one of several people that work with the Learner (i.e. teachers, therapists, parents, other family members, etc.) who make changes to the app’s configuration as the Learner progresses. We believe that both classes of users’ needs must be catered to in order to realize the full potential of the learning process.
Skill(s) Addressed: Communication
App Features:
