case study: speech tails

Byte worked closely with Speech Tails, a new online venture that will help parents improve their children's speech.  Byte was involved in all aspects of technology and strategy from the design, technology, video, animation, and much more.

Says Co-owner Todd Reno, "If you are looking for a partner to bring your concept to life, I see no better option than Byte Studios."

The concept is simple: sit with your child to take an online assessment covering much of the sound groups and their placement, like a 'P' sound at the beginning of a word.  First you choose the child's age and gender, and then have your child answer 40 simple questions and you mark what they said. 

After the assessment, you'll see a graph that shows where your child is compared to others his or her own age -- each age/gender is different.  You can sign up for a full report that you can learn more about your options, and see exactly what speech issues exist.  You can sign up for online speech learning if you like, a subscription-based service, and a lesson plan is created based on your child's assessment. 

Each lesson is based on a sound/position that your child needs help with, and each includes a video, mouth exercises, daily living exercises, homework, word lists and more.  As you complete the lessons, your progress is kept and tracked so you can log in as much as you like and not lose your place.

The site owners can manage accounts, subscriptions, site users, lessons, videos and all the content on the site through the content management system. 

Byte Studios' has been involved in education and online learning from the beginning, and Speech Tails is a great example that's truly useful, cost effective and really worthwhile.

Online speech learning has never been so easy.
