The pictures are taken from a video clip that is shown prior
to the activity representing steps in the task such as
"Eating Cereal" or "Washing your Hands." Optionally,
when the video is finished, a "Review Lesson" of the
sequencing task is presented on the screen showing the
correct order of the pictures. After the review, the
student is presented with the task of arranging the
pictures in chronological order.
The student can use switches, a mouse, or touch window
to accomplish this. There are typically 3 or 4 pictures
to sequence in a task. The programs not only comes with
many sequencing tasks but also allows you to add your
own. The number of steps for a task can range from as
little as 2 to a maximum of 10. The program has many
built in options to give you the ability to customize
the task based on the student's needs. Program settings
are saved individually for each student. Statistic are
automatically gathered for tasks per student and can be
viewed as a text file or in spreadsheet format.
