[full_width padding=”30px 0 0 0″]Reading Rehabilitation Toolkit provides over three hundred pictures organized into semantic categories. The words or categories can be individually selected or eliminated. The activities automatically increase difficulty level based on the patient’s response.[/full_width]
[one_half]
[/one_half][one_half_last padding=”0px 0 0 30px”]Customizable:
Customizing the activities to the patient’s level increases the chances of success. The application allows users to select how many items are displayed per screen and how specific each exercise should be. Users can also choose to have the application automatically increase the difficulty level, as the patient becomes successful with the tasks presented.
It is also possible to select or de-select any specific word or image on any of the six activities.[/one_half_last]
[one_half padding=”0px 30px 0 0px”]Data collection:
The Reading Rehabilitation Toolkit makes use of one of the most advanced data tracking systems on adult rehabilitation applications. Each activity has its own visual graph, this way users can track and monitor progress as they use the app.[/one_half][one_half_last]
[/one_half_last]
[one_half]
[/one_half][one_half_last padding=”0px 0 0 30px”]For therapists:
The Reading Rehabilitation Toolkit allows therapists to track the data for each patient. The customizable report can be emailed, printed, or exported to the Therapy Report Center application.
The application does not include audio because it was designed to serve as a reading exercise rather than as an auditory comprehension exercise.[/one_half_last]
