DownloadThis tool is based on communication boards and iconographic symbols. With it, users with motor and communication problems can communicate by selecting symbols on a computer screen.
The tool allows you to create custom boards based on the needs of users. For example, a vocabulary for a math class, which will have only numbers and arithmetic operators could be created. It is also possible to build a vocabulary for chemical classes, which will contain elements of the periodic table. It will depend on the student’s needs and caregiver proficiency using the tool.
The system adopts strategies to suggest a symbol choice to the user. For example, in a daily dialogue, in order to build a phrase, symbols commonly used to start sentences are presented, such as people and greetings.
When a new symbol is inserted, the tool suggests others that can be used in conjunction with the symbol already selected.
