Every day, in AEE rooms and in regular schools, educators suffer from the scarcity of adequate resources for the care of the students with disabilities. To overcome this obstacle to the quality of education, we have created, together with these professionals, the most daring set of assistive technology tools ever developed for special education.We understand the cause.
In the care of students with cognitive deficits of various natures, the Simplix software is a tool as powerful as it is intuitive for the teachers. Dragging pictures and sounds to a virtual board on the computer screen, the educator creates individualized psychomotor activities within minutes. The student, then, performs the tasks by associating the images with the colored symbols of the Key-X Smart Keyboard.Intellectual disability and disorders.
In regular classrooms, in special education, or on computers, students with severe motor impairments can use Key-X and its accessories to have autonomy in writing, close communication, and the use of the computer.Motor disability with preserved cognition.

Key-X brought accessibility, independence, and autonomy. In addition to these, it also provided significant school performance, also greatly facilitated the teacher’s pedagogical accompaniment in relation to their school progress. Another important point was the contribution of Key-X in its development of the motor control and cognition. As a result of all these benefits, we can also highlight the emotional area, in relation to their self-esteem and reliability for being able to carry out their activities.
We realized that this technology will really help us; it’s a task that will really be used inside the school and will make a difference.
With the oldest student being around 40 years old, the teachers were doing everything for him (he has a blog, and they typed). With Key-X, he was able to acquire independence to
write on the blog and do various other activities, which made everyone very happy.
With the other students, we realized that the fact that the device is colorful helps to keep the students interested, and the need for a combination of keys helped to develop their cognition.
At school, we have five autistic children with difficulty even communicating. It is with these students that I intend to work with this new resource. It is undoubtedly a great opportunity for the children, especially those with cerebral palsy, to further assist in their education
