        [Join us for a FREE presentation  Thursday, April 23rd, 2015, 12:30pm-1:30pm in 145 CSB  Presented by Debra Eisert, Florien Deurloo and Cassandra Trout]

                [PECS begins by teaching an individual to give a picture of a desired item to a "communicative partner", who immediately honors the exchange as a request. The system goes on to teach discrimination of pictures and how to put them together in sentences. In the more advanced phases, individuals are taught to answer questions and to comment. PECS does not require complex or expensive materials. It was created with families, educators, and resident care providers in mind, so is readily used in a range of settings.    PECS has been successful with individuals of all ages demonstrating a variety of communicative, cognitive and physical difficulties. Some learners using PECS also develop speech. Others may transition to a voice output system. The body of research supporting the effectiveness of PECS continues to expand, with research from countries around the world.]
