ПРИЛОЖЕНИЕ НА ВИРТУАЛНАТА РЕАЛНОСТ В ЛОГОПЕДИЧНАТА ПРАКТИКА: ЛИТЕРАТУРНО-ИНФОРМАЦИОНЕН ОБЗОР
APPLICATION OF VIRTUAL REALITY IN SPEECH THERAPY PRACTICE: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Summary/Abstract: The present study aims to determine the role of virtual reality (VR) in speech therapy practice and to identify documented cases of VR application in the therapy of speech-language disorders. The study encompasses the use of VR for education and rehabilitation of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other communication impairments. Results indicate that VR holds significant potential as an innovative tool for speech therapy. Specific applications include training children with ASD in social and communication skills through simulated scenarios such as virtual supermarkets, role-playing games, and musical rehabilitation. These approaches enhance attention, imitation abilities, and social skills in children. Innovations include the use of virtual social robots, integration of music education, and visual attention tracking. These technologies enhance the effectiveness of learning and offer an engaging and interactive approach to therapy, minimizing external factors and providing a realistic learning environment. The study concludes that VR is a powerful tool in speech therapy, offering new possibilities for therapy and education of children with speech-language disorders, and laying foundations for future research and developments in the field.
