Technology isn’t going anywhere—it’s here to stay. The question is: how can SLPs use it wisely to improve speech, language, and literacy outcomes?

In today’s episode, I dive into what the latest research says about technology paired with adult-child interaction and how this powerful combination can:

• Improve language comprehension and story grammar
• Strengthen higher-level reasoning skills through “how” and “why” questions
• Build phonological awareness (rhyming, segmenting, blending)
• Enhance vocabulary growth with simple, meaningful supports

You’ll learn practical ways to integrate digital storybooks and media into therapy without losing what matters most: person-to-person interaction and moment-to-moment connection.
