SHIELD helps children build their oral storytelling skills. The child looks at an illustrated scene and tells, out loud, what is happening. SHIELD listens, transcribes the story and compares it with the picture. When something is missing, unclear or could be said better (a character left out, a vague word, a grammar slip), the scene itself reacts with a short animation that draws the child's attention to it, so they can notice it and say it again in their own words, without ever being given the answer. At the end, you can download a readable analysis of the session.
