DynaVox InterAACT Page Sets
The InterAACT page sets were created by a team of clinicians and industry researchers with a diverse range
of professional, academic and personal backgrounds. This team developed a communication strategy,
framework and system that would meet a wide variety of communication needs, while making the most of
the capabilities of the M3 device. The InterAACT strategy draws upon the best practices from a range of
developmental science and communication sources. InterAACT page sets incorporate the use of visual
scenes, social networks as a communication inventory, and other methods for simplifying learning demands.
The InterAACT language system supports both functional communication and literacy development. It is
