Important Session Information:


Bliss tactile symbols are a new generation of tactile symbols that are brought together through the use of 3D-printing and the use of established symbol system, Blissymbolics. These tactile symbols are easy to print and consistent. They are beneficial to support communication with non-speaking individuals who are blind, deaf/blind, or visually impaired, as well as students with complex communication needs. This session will introduce tactile symbols, provide a brief history, describe the benefits, and provide implementation strategies.
