Tele-evaluation and intervention among adolescents with handwriting difficulties – Computerized Penmanship Evaluation Tool (ComPET) implementation

Writing is a complex and essential human activity. During adolescence, there is an increase in the complexity and quantity of writing required for communication, self-expression, and for demonstrating academic ability. Deficits in handwriting performance limit the writing abilities, and hence the participation of adolescents in many areas of life. Computer-based telerehabilitation has the potential to address handwriting assessment and treatment. The goal of the present study is to examine the potential of the ComPET as a tool to assess and treat adolescents with handwriting difficulties. A case report is presented.
