1月10日的Match Ups!应用程序分析

Match Ups! is one of our favorite games of all time. The first version of Match Ups! was added to our Attention and Memory CD in 1996 and we’ve been enhancing it ever since. We reused many of your favorite card sets and made lots of new cards for this version. Old favorites include Contrasts, Verbs, and African animals as well as animal drawings and people from the Artic Practice app. You can also choose alphabet letters, numbers, geometric shapes, and emoji. For a real challenge, pick the cards that use the shapes from our And, Or, But… Following Simple Directions app. The game starts out with you against the computer. At first the computer plays randomly, but you can make the game more challenging by increasing the computer’s skill level to Beginner, Good, or Expert. When playing in the expert level, the computer rarely makes a mistake—it is very hard to beat. You can also play with a friend. Just type their name in the second box and away you go. If you want to play by yourself, you can do that too. All devices can display 4, 6, 16, 24, or 36 cards on the screen. Retina iPads, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus are large enough and clear enough to also display 48 and 64 cards on the screen. You can choose simple blue, green, purple, or red card backs or spice things up and choose fun backs. Use the options screen to switch the text and sounds between English and Spanish. Match Ups! is primarily a fun memory game, but we added sounds and text so you can use it as a learning exercise as well. Special education teachers can use it to develop a fund of knowledge and to practice turn taking. SLPs can use it as an aphasia exercise, for speech articulation practice, or as a visual scanning task. SLPs tell us that they often use it as a reward at the end of a therapy session.
