Let’s look at the facts: social communication development is among the core deficits in autism. We also know that the cumulative richness of children's interactive language experience relates strongly to their later language and literacy development. Below are a few reasons why the LENA System can serve as an invaluable tool to collecting and analyzing child speech:
LENA is the only automatic speech measurement device in existence and it reliably measures key sources of communication and language development including turn-taking and amount of language input.
LENA may assist parents in providing the richest possible social language learning environment for their child with autism, just as it may for typical developing children.
LENA may assist practitioners in assuring that their intervention efforts are provided in the context of a rich social language environment.
“Parent-child vocal play that involves strategic sound repetition can be great fun for both parent and child. This book provides parents with some wonderful tools for establishing a strong basis for intelligible speech.”
“LENA is the reason our 3-year-old daughter is reading, writing, and talking incredibly fluently. We didn’t realize how little we were talking to our baby until we got feedback from the LENA System, and eventually we learned how to get 15,000 words in every day to our daughter. She now is able to do kindergarten work easily.
We are so grateful to have found the LENA system so our daughter has a better chance at excelling in her education as she grows. Thank you!”
What Experts are Saying:
“LENA has the potential to radically transform child education and parenting, and is also providing a pioneering and invaluable technological breakthrough in the understanding of children’s intellectual development.”
