The R, S, L screening is designed to evaluate the client’s speech for accurate production of R, S, and L clusters and R-Controlled vowels in the initial, medial and final positions. (Some sounds are not produced in some positions in English—these have been omitted.)
The client will be presented with one word in each of the three Text boxes. They may read the model or listen to the speech model (imitative). Click on the Record button in each Practice box and have the client say the word. Record over the sample until you are satisfied with the production. Speech Visualization will save the production so that you can re-play it later to demonstrate progress.
When the client has finished recording, the clinician will need to score each production as (c) Correct or (i) Incorrect. The words are listed with the target sound in the Initial, Medial, or Final positions. These will be reported as correct or incorrect by position and sound on the results page. Vowels should not scored in this exercise. You may use the Assessment Notes to indicate sound substitutions.
If you have recorded the client’s production, then you must score the production before moving on to the next word. If you want to skip a word do not record anything and the program will let you proceed to the next word without scoring.
If automatic saving is not enabled, the speech sample can be saved by clicking on the Save Recording... button. All of the samples for this exercise are saved in the same folder and given a name that starts with the word, followed by the date, and time. You can play the sample by clicking on the Load Recording... button and selecting it from the list.
