First screen by Orkids

Unlock insights into learning challenges with Orkids First Screen, an innovative Android app designed to identify specific learning disabilities in school-age children. Developed through rigorous validation with over 100 children across diverse educational settings, this comprehensive screening tool covers nine essential domains: reading & spelling, written expression, oral language, motor skills, attention, social skills, mathematics, executive functions, and memory.

Accessible in 12 languages, including English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Assamese, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Marathi, Kannada, and Punjabi, First Screen ensures inclusivity and cultural relevance. With 90 scoring items offering three-point answers (yes, maybe, no/NA), the assessment can be completed by a parent or teacher familiar with the child's academic and behavioral history, typically taking 20-25 minutes per child.

Upon submission of the checklist, First Screen generates a visual feedback report, offering detailed insights into the child's performance across various domains. This feedback not only pinpoints specific areas of difficulty but also proposes a tailored action plan for further support and intervention.

Whether in English or Hindi, Orkids First Screen provides a user-friendly interface for caregivers, educators, and professionals alike. Free to download from the Play Store, this invaluable tool empowers stakeholders in education to identify and address learning challenges effectively.
