The word predication can not be customized nor does it provide recency, collecting frequently used vocabulary.Īlthough simple, I am excited to see an app like this emerge that has word prediction and text to speech. Used for word processing, or math the word processor is very basic. The additional bonuses is that it has word prediction and it provides a small screen for importing pictures. It provides basic work processing with a keyboard that you can customize. Visit often, comment and share as many great minds collaborating together is powerful!Ĭarol Leynse Harpold, MS AdEd, OTR/L, ATPĪ new app available is Intellipad, nothing to do with Intellikeys or Intellitools. My goal for OT’s with Apps and Technology is to offer technology tools and resources that support therapists in improving their practice and functional capabilities of individuals with disabilities. As electronic devices evolve, their form and function expand, providing new potential for OT’s, increasing access, reducing barriers and providing mobile tools and other types of technology that have the potential of improving services and independence for the clients we service. Although they are never to be the object of therapy, electronic devices have the potential of being used as an intervention, adaptive device, training and resource tool, communication or cognitive aid for the students, patients and clients we service. With the continued evolution and availability of technology, electronic tools provide an increasingly important part of a therapists day. In recent years, electronic devices have increasingly been used by therapists as an administrative, intervention as well as assistive tool. OT’s with Apps and Technology is a resource for occupational therapists, teachers, parents and clients seeking tools and strategies to improve the occupational skills of all ages.Īssistive and adaptive technology have always been part of an OT’s tools to improve participation and increase independence.
