Abstract

ICT is an important aspect in the field of education, and it involves redefining the role of instructors within the educational context. The aim of this chapter is to capture the psychosocial impact among specialists (instructors/speech therapists) and parents regarding the use and efficiency of ICT in the treatment of language disorders. To this purpose, the authors organized their research into two stages: (1) the construction of a questionnaire that outlines the psychosocial impact of ICT use and ICT efficiency in the therapy of language disorders among specialists (instructors and speech therapists) and parents; (2) the research stage itself, used to capture the specificity of each sample of subjects concerning the object of research. Both the professionals and the parents recognize the benefits of using computer technology as a means for stimulating the children’s interest, motivation, and involvement in educational activities, but also as didactic methods that facilitate teaching and strengthen the children’s newly acquired knowledge.
