Appy MOTA Conference 2017!

Implementing the iPad in School Based Practice


This post is for those who are attending the Missouri Occupational Therapy Association Conference 2017 in St. Louis or for those who are just interested!

Description of my session:

I have an iPad… now what? Many therapists have access to iPads or bring in personal ones to school and use it only for one thing…reinforcement. This intermediate level session will discuss latest research, when to implement the iPad therapeutically, when not to implement the iPad, how to pick a good iPad app, app examples, helpful accessories, and tips and tricks. Case studies and app demonstrations will also be presented to help you make a connection to your practice. 
Level: Intermediate

Favorite Apps shared by conference participants (thanks for coming to my presentation!):
I have links to the app store to the ones I know. Apps tend to have similar names, so I wasn't sure which one people were sharing.
