Abstract

Educational software represents any software product in any format that can be used on any computer and that represents a subject, a theme, a lesson, a course, etc., being an alternative or the only solution to traditional educational methods (blackboard, chalk, etc.). Educational software is a progressive and motivating method that contributes to the efficiency of teaching/learning/evaluation, the modernization of the didactic act, and the accessibility of knowledge. The questionnaire, applied online, highlighted the implementation of the educational software in speech therapy, the advantages, disadvantages, along with the challenges and opportunities of their use. The most used educational software in online speech therapy by the speech therapists who participated in the study is LOGOPEDIX. Another platform used to a significant extent is Tara, Geno-Pro, Timlogo, Voxi Kids, Octoplay, Tarabostes, Pictosonidos. The role and contribution of educational software in the therapy of language disorders, how it influences the results obtained in speech therapy and how it contributes to solving a number of existing cases, was mentioned. Educational software specially created for children with disabilities are important sources in correcting deficiencies. Using IAC can help people with disabilities overcome their disability, become less dependent and enrich their repertoire of skills and abilities. The use of educational software in the correction of language disorders in students with intellectual disabilities is obvious, but the full exploitation depends on the degree to which speech therapists are prepared to integrate them, as well as the available technological resources.
