PECS IV+ is the solution for transitioning from PECS to high-tech AAC. For learners who have mastered Phases I through IV of the Picture Exchange Communication System using traditional PECS books, PECS IV+ is the high-tech next step! From Pyramid Educational Consultants, the developers of the evidence-based and world-renowned PECS, PECS IV+ allows users to construct a multi-picture Sentence Strip via a dedicated Sentence Starter page and up to 20 digital PECS book pages for the in-app voice to speak. Features of PECS IV+: Looks like a traditional PECS book with colored, tabbed pages with VELCRO strips and a Sentence Strip so you can create a PECS IV+ book that looks identical to your students PECS bookDrag and drop pictures from the tabbed pages to the Sentence Strip just like with a traditional PECS bookSwitch between pages by scrolling between and tapping on different tabsRearrange pictures on the Sentence Strip without having to delete picturesClear Sentence Strips with a single button push or clear individual pictures by swiping them back to the bookIncludes over 1,000 Pics for PECS imagesIntegrated features from the PECS protocol such as constant time delay for the in-app voiceCustomize each book: Open or close the dedicated Sentence Starter page with a single touchCreate 1-20 tabbed pagesUp to 24 pictures per pageCustomize each page by number of VELCRO strips, color, category icon, and/or number of pictures on each pageCustomize pictures:Use any of our included Pics for PECS images or add images from your photo library and the webChange text on picturesPut text on top or bottom of pictures, or remove text from picturesChange size of picturesSearch function for the Pics for PECS library includedSpeechUse included customizable synthesized speech (AVSpeechSynthesizer) or record your own speechIncorporate the research-based constant time delay for reading the Sentence Strip to create opportunities for the student to speakSelect from included profiles or create new profiles to customize:How pictures are moved: tap, drag or bothHow to clear (reset) the Sentence StripVisibility of Sentence Starter pageReading Sentence Strip left to right or right to leftWhen to read the Sentence Strip: as each picture is selected or with a single tap of the Speak button after the Sentence Strip is completed Track students usage:Day by day list of Sentence Strips constructed by the studentWeekly and monthly analysis of most frequently-used picturesPyramid Educational Consultants does not recommend starting functional communication training with an app or a speech generating device because these high-tech options do NOT require the social interaction that is crucial to communication and is the cornerstone of the Picture Exchange Communication System. Functional communication training should begin with a traditional PECS Communication Book. Research has shown that most learners can learn Phases I through IV of the low-tech PECS Communication protocol within 3- to 9-months.Go to www.pecs.com for more information about PECS.To view the PECS IV+ demo video or for more information about PECS IV+ visit www.pecs.com/PECSIV.
