Each overlay corresponds to preprogrammed pages in the the TactileTalk Communication Book using the GoTalk NOW App using . Students feel the object for reference and tap the screen for a corresponding voice output. For example, tapping the bells image to play “I’d like to listen to music”. An accompanying printed TactileTalk Guidebook helps you to integrate tangible symbols into the school day, and provides examples for using this product with students with various disabilities.
