Summary/Abstract: Polish speech therapy has been using information and communication technologies (ICT) in diagnosis and therapy for over 30 years. Initially, speech therapists used world-wide innovations to start creating their own computer programs tailored to the specificity of the Polish language in the 1990s. Along with the development of the Internet, speech therapy platforms have emerged. One of them, the author of this article, used speech therapy in children with speech disorders to check whether new technologies can contribute to the improvement of articulation. The conducted pedagogical experiment showed that the author’s concept of b-learning can be effective in speech therapy for children.
