How does speech-language teletherapy work?
Computer based video conferencing equipment connects the local school to speech-language pathologists at Minot State University’s North Dakota Center for Persons with Disabilities (NDCPD). Interactions between the child and the professional are much as they would be in face-to-face therapy with the exception being they see each other on the computer monitor. Back to question list. Is it an effective way to teach children? We think it is an effective service delivery model. A model program from Oklahoma found teletherapy services to be highly effective. Schools and families both rated the speech/language services as good or better than traditional face-to-face services. Back to question list.
