Glossary Term

Audio-CASI (Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview)

A method where questions are read aloud by a computer to assist participants who cannot read fluently.

Audio-CASI plays recorded audio for each question and response option so children who are still learning to read can participate independently. In our Puppet Interview app, the voiceover is synchronized with on-screen animated puppets, reducing cognitive load and improving accessibility in K–5 settings.

Audio ensures consistent delivery across classrooms, which can improve reliability and reduce interviewer effects. Headphones are recommended to minimize distraction and preserve privacy in shared environments.
