Title
Super-fon: mobile entertainment to combat phonological disorders in children
Abstract
Therapies based on serious games are gaining a lot of interest by the healthcare community. The efficiency of this approach is demonstrated by several studies and many projects. This paper presents the project Super-Fon, which is focused on a serious game developed as a mobile application to support speech therapeutic intervention in the phonological development area. The game design follows the metaphon therapy approach, implementing its phases and levels, and it intends to motivate children between three and eight years old to execute activities to improve phonological competencies while having a fun experience. A first prototype was developed for Android-based tablets.
