School Signs and Words is a personal skills and independent living skills tutorial program designed for use with individuals with cognitive or developmental disabilities. This program teaches the 80 most common signs and words found in a school setting, including cafeteria, gymnasium, locker, nurse, principal, school bus, and stairs. Multimedia software combines live action video and human-quality audio in an adult format. Corresponding print exercises to reinforce learning (approximately 100 hours of print individual and group activities). The program also offers an unmanaged review section for previously learned words, signs, and concepts, as well as a pre-assessment in both print and software formats. The software preassessment results electronically assign user activities based on skill level. A post-assessment documents skill acquisition. Additional features include closed captioning that may be turned on or off and options to adjust the program to the level of the learner.

A screen print function allows for any screen in the program to be printed. This program is touch screen compatible, switch accessible, and IntelliKeys accessible (see separate entry).
