A navigational popup menu combined with additional button links empower individual's to quickly move from page to page as well as access to rich vocabulary and language. The Adult user environment was designed for adults with acquired language deficits and has been found to be equally successful for adults with developmental delays. Consisting of a core vocabulary of 3500 single words the outcome of this user environment is novel message generation. Word representation is text based, therefore, symbols have not been applied to these pages. The organizational strategy categorizes the vocabulary by parts of speech.
Navigation occurs through a built-in master.
Consistency in the page design throughout the user environment facilitates motor automaticity and reduces memory load. The Concept user was created for individuals with limited literacy skills, but who wanted access to vocabulary beyond a small set of core words. Using DynaSyms for word representation, this user environment takes advantage of DynaVox technology to present an immensely rich vocabulary set. The DynaVox user determines the simplicity or complexity of a message. Vocabulary items are organized by concepts and generated by a vocabulary search.
