What it is

A grid of small symbols asks the learner to fit the interface. Choice works the other way around: keep what the choice means, and change how the learner gets to it.

Keep the meaning. Change the way in.

Choice works alongside a learner's communication system. It doesn't replace one that already works.

How it works

  1. 1

    Pick the cards

    Ready-made folders (Core Communication, Meals & Food, Dressing & Self-Care, School, Play, Nature & Sensory), or take a photo to make a card of their own cup, toy, or favorite person.

  2. 2

    Pick a way to respond

    Choose the simplest way that works today.

  3. 3

    They choose

    A clear choice, and a clear result.

More ways to respond

Simple Response

Single Button · Yes / No

One action, or two big steady answers.

Step & Switch

NEXT / GO · Listen & Choose · Hold to Browse

The choices come to the learner, one at a time.

Direct Touch

Touch Once · Listen, Then Touch Again

Touch to choose, or hear it first, then touch again to confirm.

Swipe & Touch

Swipe & Tap · Swipe & Two Taps

Swipe anywhere to browse, tap anywhere to choose.

Speech can be turned on or off without losing any saved words.

The same card, three ways

Level 1 (CVI): simple, bold, on black · Level 2: a drawing · Level 3: a real photo, including one you take of the learner's own things. The meaning stays the same. You choose the picture that works for this learner. Target size goes from Enormous down to Micro, in both directions.

Their cup. Their bus. Their dog. Snap it, and it's a card.

Ideas for real life

Meals and snacks

Two foods or drinks, as photos or simple CVI pictures.

Yes / No in routines

'Do you want more?' 'Are you finished?' 'Ready?'

Their own things

Photograph the learner's real cup, coat, toy or favorite person and make them into cards.

Shared reading

'Again,' 'turn the page,' or the repeated line.

Sensory preferences

Lights, music, movement, or quiet time.

Transitions

'One more,' 'finished,' 'break,' 'next.'

Inside look

The same cards as simple CVI pictures or real photos.

Good for

Learners with CVI or visual impairment, learners with complex motor needs, switch users, and learners who understand choices but need fewer of them, or a different way to get to them.

Tip:Try a new way to respond with familiar choices first. Don't change the access, the pictures and the words all at once.
