making music theory fun!

“use what you’re learning to learn what you’re using”

Create a tactile educational tool for CDS students and clients who have communication and swallowing disabilities in SJSU community clinics

A collaborative project between Communication Disorders and Sciences (CDS) and Industrial Design (ID) department at San Jose State University (SJSU)

what is music theory

A speech-language pathologist evaluates and diagnoses speech, language, cognitive communication, and swallowing disorders.

Playbase therapy is one of the most effective treatments for people with autism. The activity helps develop their functions while informing what needs to be diagnosed.

The idea was brought up by CDS students and drives the core aspect of the design.
