StepPad AAC Device by Attainment Company is an easy-to-use device that support tool for multi-step tasks.

Feature:

• Small enough to fit in hands or purse
• Offers an ergonomic and dual-speaker design
• Records up to four activities with two levels and 30 steps each
• Provides a short-term teaching tool or a long-term adaptive aid
• Has lanyard loops built-in and a belt loop slot for easy transport
• Ideal for recording directions to play in sequence, one step at a time.

Here’s how the StepPad works:

To activate a stepwise sequence, press any of the four buttons designated for activities. These buttons can be labeled with a slide-in overlay and an auditory cue. By pressing the Next button, users hear each step individually. Press Play to go over a step again. Use the Back button to review earlier steps.

With StepPad, you can log as many as 30 steps for each activity. It can handle eight activities (four activities, two levels), producing as many as 240 step recordings. It is possible to re-record any step without impacting other recordings. It is possible to add a new step to a sequence without altering the other steps. Additionally, you have the option to lock StepPad to only one specific activity. This can diminish the chances of a user becoming “lost” and can restrict access to level-changing and record functions.

The StepPad is a robust cognitive support tool that is user-friendly and designed for individuals who struggle to carry out multi-step tasks on their own. The user is prompted on what to do next by having the recorded directions played back in sequence, one step at a time. The StepPad serves effectively as a short-term instructional device and a long-term adaptive support.

The ergonomically designed StepPad is extremely portable. It fits well in your purse, pocket, and even small hands. You can easily press the navigation buttons with your thumb, just like on a video game controller. Volume is adjusted on the sides of the device, within quick reach of your index fingers. Two key messages are easily accessible. Utilize these for crucial information or key expressions. With dual speakers, the StepPad can be heard even in a crowd. Alternatively, you can utilize the headphone jack to maintain the privacy of recordings.
