Multiple activities improve switch skills

Switch Basics



Build essential single-switch skills
Pupils are supported as they learn press-and-release and repeat pressing as a precursor to step scanning.



Introduce pupils to on-screen scanning
Activities are designed to develop skills from basic linear scanning to row-column scanning.



Help pupils learn to make choices
Activities include cause-and-effect elements that let pupils see the results of their decisions.



Promote interaction and communication
A two-switch option allows pupils to take turns, building essential skills for social interaction.


Keep pupils interested while they learn
Nine different activities include music, images and animation to keep pupils engaged.

Switch Basics uses age-appropriate activities to teach pupils single-switch use and more. Pupils can "become" a barber or a beautician, visit a talking fish, make a tiger run a course, or nudge characters to step forward (with surprising results). Activities also include animation scenes. Easy-to-change options can be set to meet each pupil's needs, from basic cause-and-effect to row-column scanning. Teachers can change the number of required switch presses or add an auditory scan. Switch Basics collects data to track pupils' control, intentionality and timing.

Ability Level: Age P5 • Interest Level: Age 5-18
