Description
Backdrop is an interactive 'Draw & Tell' app designed to enable and enhance professional communication with children.The iPad is a perfect tool for professionals working with children. It is unobtrusive, and easily introduced into sessions. It also engages children positively and greatly enhances rapport. This is particularly important for those who work with children therapeutically or for the purposes of assessment with respect to difficult or stressful issues. However, although children are pleased to interact with a tablet, there is a risk that it might act as a distraction, moving the focus away from the intended work of the session.Backdrop (and the other apps from C & FT) addresses this difficulty. Simply by interacting with a carefully designed backdrop and child friendly tools, children can work together with a professional to communicate and support a verbal narrative on a specific topic. They can make statements about their personal experiences, wishes or feelings. The product of the work of a child can be saved as snapshot at any time, to be printed for the child to keep, or for the professional to incorporate into a report. Entirely new backdrops can be created, saved and reused.
