Abstract

In this paper, we present several software tools to diagnose and correct child language disorders. These tools implement a playing strategy to decrease stress and improve effectiveness. In addition, we describe a tool for an alternative communication via pictograms.

This work is supported by the Ministry of Science and Education of the Russian Federation under the 5–100 Excellence Programme.
