Call Scotland New & Revised Apps Wheel

Posted on October 26, 2017 by Carol Leynse Harpold, MS, OTR/L, SCLV, ATP, CATIS

Call Scotland has curated apps using a clever apps wheel display for several years. Here is their 6th version of the iPad Apps for Learners with Dyslexia / Reading and Writing Difficulties. Their app wheel has those tried and true apps for individuals a learning disability. I’m sure you’ll find your favorite apps, as well as a few new ones.

Here is an image of the app wheel:

What are your favorite apps that support individuals with a learning disability? I might consider adding a dictionary app category.

H/T to Call Scotland for their diligence in staying abreast of the best of thousands of apps to chose from (daunting job!).
