It concluded: "McLeod et al.’s (2020) review shows there are many technological service options developed prior to COVID-19, particularly for clients living rurally, that are now useful during a pandemic. Their review summarised that while most indirect treatments where non speech pathologists (parents, educators) deliver intervention have not been effective, Apraxia World has been extremely successful. Overall, this review is an interesting paper for clinicians to read in order to support children with speech sound disorders and their families during the pandemic." (Smidt, 2021, p. 47)
