A program to help children with severe specific speech and language problems.

The APE program was written to help children with severe specific speech and language problems. It was originally designed for my daughter Annie, but may be helpful to anyone with reading and speech problems.

    APE comes in two parts:
    • the Admin program that the teacher or speech and language therapist uses
    • the Tester program that the pupil uses
The definitions of the word/phrase test sequences, and the results, are stored in a SQL Server database. The test images are stored as separate files. The database and the images may be stored on the classroom PC or on a central server.

Basic layout of the APE Tester screen. (Click to display a fullsize version.) The pupil using the Tester program sees a series of screens like this. There is one image and a choice of two words, or two phrases. (Click on the image to display a full size version.)

The pupil must read and decide which of the two options is correct, and then click on that option.

The pupil may do the test sequence unsupervised, or may be supervised when they are expected to read aloud both of the options

The test sequences can be created specifically for a child at their current stage of understanding.

Words and phrases and appropriate images can be entered into APE as required.
