Best Educational App by Teacher with Apps Description for SLPs & Educators Social Quest is the premier, evidence-based, gamified intervention tool developed by a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) to master crucial pragmatic language, social-emotional, and problem-solving skills in tweens and teens (Ages 8-17). Stop searching for relevant, age-appropriate materials. Social Quest uses over 800 high-interest narratives and contextual images set in real-life locations (Home, School, Community) to provide the vital "jumping off" points for discussion. This app transforms abstract social concepts into a motivating, customizable quest. Why SLPs & Educators Choose Social Quest: 1. Evidence-Based and Curriculum-Ready Story-Based Intervention: Aligned with practices found effective for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and social communication disorders (National Autism Center, 2011). Focus on Generalization: Features separate Receptive (multiple choice) and Expressive (open-ended discussion) activities to promote generalization of skills beyond the therapy room. Targeted Skills: Explicitly addresses: Perspective-Taking, Conversational Maintenance/Transitions, Gauging Others' Reactions, Problem Solving, and developing Self-Talk for anxiety reduction (Sze & Wood, 2007). 2. Motivating Quest Theme & Customizable Profiles Gamified Learning: Students embark on a quest, navigating locations via a "Tele Transporter Machine" to solve social challenges. Personalized Progress: Easily create and manage multiple student profiles with customizable avatars/photos (See: Hall of Heroes). The Hall of Rewards: Reinforce progress with virtual, skill-linked tokens (e.g., Saddle for asserting control, Prism for understanding perspective), providing tangible concepts for discussing skill use outside the app. 3. Critical Data Tracking & Reporting Automated Data Collection: Effortlessly track progress across Receptive and Expressive activities, locations, and sessions. Detailed Report Cards: Generate session-by-session reports showing accuracy, items presented, and most/least successful locations. Share Function: Print or email reports directly to parents, case managers, or students for easy progress monitoring and record-keeping, essential for IEPs and parent communication. The Social Quest Advantage Real-World Contexts: Questions cover relevant scenarios in the Kitchen, Library, Supermarket, Mall, Doctor's Office, and more. Flexible Social Scripts: The Receptive Activity can be customized to require students to identify one or two correct answers, reflecting the flexible nature of social rules. Visual & Auditory Support: All questions include contextual images, text, and accompanying audio for diverse learning needs. Bring the quest for social competence into your practice today!
