STACS: Standardized Tactile Augmentative Communication Symbols helps learning partners (teachers, parents, peers, etc.) teach a beginning standardized vocabulary. Teachers then introduce additional individualized symbols as needed. The STACS digital instruction manual (available under Manuals \u0026amp; Downloads below) and included online videos show learning partners how to implement symbols effectively as a part of their learner’s communication system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTangible symbols are appropriate for use as a receptive form of communication with any learner who is deafblind and as an expressive form of communication for learners who have a predictable motor, behavioral, or communicative response that the communication partner can interpret.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe instructional manual available as a free digital download will improve partner understanding of the use of tactile symbols and provide a jumping off point from which to develop personal communication systems.
