Aphasia Education
iPad / Education
'Aphasia' refers to a set of language challenges, from difficulty reading to difficulty finding the right words to say. The Aphasia Education app plays like a game, but was designed with the help of speech language pathologists who wanted a tool to help care providers learn to interact with individuals with aphasia. The goal of the app is to teach you about some of the challenges that these individuals face, and how they -- with your help! -- can overcome them effectively.
