Symbolstix Prime is well-suited for those students who use a communication mode, such as Touch Chat, which allows you to create communication pages using Symbolstix Prime symbols. For students who use the Tobii Dynavox eye gaze system, I feel that it is less suited for them since I am not able to create communication pages with Symbolstix Prime symbols.
Provides symbols which align with Leveled Books and Easy Read books (e.g., symbols of characters and objects in the story).
Allows for searching for a symbol and then providing the ability to download it so it can be used within other programs/software, such as Google Slides.
Symbolstix allows you to save boards that you create so you can go back to them and make changes/edits as needed.
The board wizard layout was changed in recent months, and it can be confusing trying to create a board for a field of 4, 6, etc. This was previously easier to do with the older layout..
Sometimes I am looking for an exact match for a symbol that appears in a Leveled book or Easy Read book that doesn't appear to exist in the bank of symbols.
When trying to import a picture, sometimes the pictures I import are blurry when I add them to one of my boards.
Symbolstix is generally user-friendly, and the board wizard feature allows you to customize the layout and size of symbols based on the needs of each student and/or classroom activity you are designing it for. The bank of symbols to choose from is large, and in most cases, I am able to find a symbol that I am looking for, and I am happily surprised at times to find how specific some of the symbols are, such as seeing they have a "McDonald's Shamrock Shake" symbol when looking for St. Patrick's Day symbols.
Symbolstix Prime allows me to create symbols in a variety of sizes and customize the background color, font, etc., for students with visual impairments.
Symbostix helps provide consistency for students throughout the day and supports a language-rich learning environment, including allowing me to use symbols for class schedules, individualized schedules, labeling items in the classroom, visual supports for Unique lessons, and class meetings.
Symbolstix allows boards to be created using or imported from real pictures, which work better than the Symbolstix symbols for some students.
