By Laura Sambrooks M.A. CCC-SLP and Amber Richardson M.S. CCC-SLP

This week we celebrate the 1 year anniversary of our start in the SLP-D program. One of the first classes we took was called “digital literacy” and I remember thinking: what is digital literacy?  Today we want to explore what it means to be digitally literate and how that applies to the field of speech language pathology and the patients we serve. Spoiler alert: it's not only rocking your Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn account. It is about how we engage with the digital space to be not only seekers of information but contributors.  Digital literacy and how you use digital tools is as unique as your fingerprint.

Here is a list of the apps we discuss on the podcast:
