New resources launched in partnership with Speech and Language UK

We are glad to announce two new resources developed in partnership with Speech and Language UK.

The resources, for families and educators and professionals, are now on the Speech and Language UK website.

The resources give practical recommendations and tips for families and educators and professionals on ways to choose and use apps to support communication skills for children aged 2 to 11 years.

The guidance is based on our research findings on features of apps to support language learning, creativity and parent-child interaction; and the role of information in commercial app marketplaces in guiding these choices. You can find out more about this research here.
