App Summary:
SnapType for Occupational Therapy is an easy to use, intuitive app allowing completion of worksheets using the camera on an iPad to create an image and type answers on it. Images taken are not particularly clean or clear, but offer a quick and easy way for students with good reading and spelling skills to complete worksheets using word processing or speech to text if supported with Wi-Fi or accurate speech recognition. This app would be appropriate as a quick answer for elementary students who are familiar with mobile technology and have some level of support from teaching staff. Requirements for independent use by a student include:
- Ability to take picture of a hard copy document
- Ability to tap and create a text box
- Ability to read the worksheet text
- Reasonable typing and spelling skills to support producing text or accurate speech to text capabilities (with Wi-Fi)
- Ability to take a screenshot of the completed worksheet
