Sarah Hall, MA, CCC-SLP
Sarah Hall received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire and Master’s Degree from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, both in Communication Disorders. This is Sarah’s 11th school year as a speech-language pathologist and her 4th year with the Appleton Area School District. Sarah has worked both the medical and educational realm of speech-language pathology; early childhood through geriatrics. In the fall of 2009, Sarah began a trial using iPod touch devices with students along the autism spectrum. For the past 3 school years, Sarah has been managing the ever growing special education fleet of mobile devices. Currently there are nearly 100 mobile devices for use with students with special needs available in nearly every location and at every age level within the district. Sarah continues to explore the use of iPod Touches and iPads in her own therapeutic practice to promote functional and independent communication, self-advocacy skills and innovative learning opportunities. Sarah shares her passion for technology in education with her husband of 11 years, who is a 6th-8th grade teacher in a project based STEM charter. Sarah is also the mother of three tech savy boys under the age of 6 who act as a constant test kitchen for appropriate use and access in the early years.
