Electronic BRAIN BOOK®
BRAIN BOOK® System is researching vendor
sources for creating an electronic version of the BRAIN BOOK®
System. Check back and we’ll keep you posted!
BRAIN BOOK® System Software
We are responding to requests to make templates available in the form of software that BRAIN BOOK®
users can have to create their own versions of “SCHEDULE” and “Memory Notes” pages, “TALK TO”
pages, “ROUTINES” cards, and other inserts. These would be pages you can print on your own
printer (good for people who type better or faster than they write, or who use voice-activated
computers).
Web-site Lessons
The first lesson is done and more are on the way! In addition to the TBI-TEACHING and
TBI-COACHING e-mail lists, students and their skills trainers will soon be able to download
and print lessons directly from the Web site.
Assistive Technology Grants
BRAIN BOOK® System tools are considered
part of “assistive technology” for persons with disabilities. It is also part of
“rehabilitation technology.” This is important because grants are being written to provide
persons with brain injury “assistive technology” and “rehabilitation technology.” Let’s share
resources and contacts.
State Vocational Rehabilitation Resources
Some state Vocational Rehabilitation Divisions are willing to fund BRAIN BOOK®
System materials (tools) and skills training (coaching), if it can be demonstrated that the
BRAIN BOOK® System is likely to help persons
with brain injury maximize their vocational potential.
Certification Course for Skills Trainers
The curriculum for the BRAIN BOOK® System
Certification Course for skills trainers and coaches is under development. If you would like
to become a certifed BRAIN BOOK® System
skills trainer, please let us know.
Children’s Program
The youth version of the BRAIN BOOK® System
program is being developed in response to an overwhelming number of inquires requesting tools
for children. It is being designed to accommodate the needs of young people ages 8 to 16.
