Scoring and Prompt Levels Explained

How scoring modes and the cueing hierarchy work.

Scoring modes:

Sound Safari offers two scoring approaches:

- Live scoring — Tap Correct/Incorrect/Approximate after each word. Results are recorded immediately and shown on screen.

- Score later — Practice without scoring, then review and score words after the session. Great for when you want to focus on therapy rather than data entry.

Discreet scoring:

Enable in Settings or per-student. Hides the live score counter during sessions so the student doesn't focus on their accuracy percentage. Data is still recorded — it's just not displayed.

Prompt levels:

Sound Safari follows the standard cueing hierarchy:

- Maximum — Full model + visual + verbal cues

- Moderate — Partial model + verbal cue

- Minimum — Verbal cue only

- Independent — No cues provided

Adjust the prompt level during a session using the slider at the bottom of the practice screen. The prompt level is recorded with each word response for accurate data tracking.
