Add interactive educational activities to printed materials!

All the features of Boardmaker v.6, plus the interaction of voice, animations and video

Bring Boardmaker activities to life and make the computer a student learning tool with Boardmaker Plus! software. Featuring more than 4,500 Picture Communication Symbols (PCS) in both color and black-and-white, all in 44 languages, Boardmaker Plus! is a drawing program combined with a graphics database that also has the ability to talk and play recorded sounds and movies. This interactive component allows users to create talking activity boards, worksheets, schedules, books, writing activities, games and more, and adapt all materials to each student.

Boardmaker Plus! is the ideal tool for creating symbol-based print and interactive materials such as communication displays for AAC users, talking lessons for English language learners, visual schedules and social skills stories for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, books and symbol-supported literacy activities for beginning and pre-readers, song and story boards for preschoolers, and general educational and functional living skills activities for special education students. And that's just the beginning! Add more symbols to the core library, or add digital images or other graphics, and the communication possibilities never end!
