Location
Los Angeles, CA
Application Track
Other Innovations in Translational Learning Technologies
Description
SING AND SPEAK 4 KIDS is an innovative evidence-based music online program based on a clinically trialed neurologic music therapy that stimulates speech-language development in children ages 18 months to 8 years, specifically designed for those with developmental disabilities (e.g. autism, Down, intellectual disability, stuttering, etc.) and English Language Learners. Facilitated by either a teacher or parent, in-person or virtually, SS4Kids offers fun learning sessions with embedded assessment tools, data tracking and reporting, and encourages social communication and social emotional learning. To support children’s learning outcomes, professional and parent training is integrated into the program. The AI-assisted feature MAKE YOUR OWN SONG is currently being developed to support greater personalization for the diverse developmental and cultural population.
