Point To Pictures

Designed specifically for beginning AAC learners and/or those that function at very 'early' levels, teaches early choice-making based on learner interests.

Point to Pictures (PTP) and Scan To Pictures (STP, for switch(es))) are Augmentative Communication training apps designed for those persons learning to point/select a picture on an iPad in order to get that item in real life, and thus might help those that might eventually use the iPad to communicate via pictures and/or text.

Using a library animations and pictures of real-world consequences, the learner learns to pair their switch action with receiving the actual item (food, toy, activity, person, song, etc.). PTP/STP wants you to add your own pictures that are personally motivating to your learner, because many times, only a few specific things really 'get through' to a learner.

Before you go to a 'real' communication program, which usually has no 'fun' content, and no 'hand-holding', you will find PTP/STP to be a necessary step from cause/effect to more advanced communication apps.

Several other tasks are necessary for basic understanding and learning and are offered as separate apps: Find It First Categories Sequencing Gold (includes all of the above)
