We are currently living in a time where technology is constantly evolving and changing various fields. How is our field changing because of new technologies? I’m talking about things like telepractice, new AAC devices, online courses in school…And also how technologies are being used in the classroom to aid student learning. How is technology being used in therapy sessions?
The DOE and Early Intervention are both currently using teletherapy to continue conducting sessions during the pandemic which has been a learning curve for many but does allow services to continue.
So really…where do you see technology taking our field? Will we use our smart phones as AAC devices? Will be be able to skype or facetime therapy sessions? Would that improve quality? Efficiency?
