7.11. Config - Child Functional 4 Button
The Child Functional 4 Button configuration provides functional communication to engage in basic social
interactions and to meet individual needs. The main page allows access to vocabulary based on four
different contexts: ‘about me,’ ‘my home,’ ‘my classroom’ and ‘playing.’ The top row buttons remain
consistent on every page: links to the user main page, the
facilitator master (allowing the communication
partner to navigate through the system to find the needed content), my phrases and talk . Every page in this
configuration navigates back to this main page. The facilitator master allows access to many more contexts
for communication such as ‘my family,’ ‘dress up’ and ‘meals.’ The my phrases button links to a page of quick
phrases, such as 'hey' and 'no way' that the child can use in a variety of environments. The final button in the
top row is
talk , which displays quickfire utterances such as 'mom,' 'yes' and 'no' which can be used in every
context.
