The Use of the Kokolingo Application in Speech and Language Teletherapy: A Pilot Program

About session

A large number of children with language and speech difficulties, a shortage of speech therapy expertise, and the geographical distance of families from speech therapy support are the reasons behind the development of this form of online speech therapy support. Children from municipalities across Croatia received speech therapy support in the form of teletherapy sessions with counseling held once a month, along with a designed thirty-day exercise program and unlimited use of the Kokolingo application. Excercises are primarily assigned through the Kokolingo application, and materials for promoting language skills and pre-reading and pre-writing skills are provided as needed. Municipalities funded the program for all participants.
