What People Are Saying About the Multimedia System
Bonnie Vaillancourt, President and Owner of Simplified Speech Solutions, LLC, shares:
"T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Multimedia System is a systematically organized, hierarchically-based tool that is a simple and amazing resource! It puts an end to any guess work of implementing this program - it is a solution to everyone's individual needs."
Cynthia Gomez, Teacher, explains:
"I am not a 'Systems Girl' - I will usually try to subvert it. T.H.E. P.A.C.T., on the other hand, is a system I can wrap my mind and heart around. Not only is it a remarkable tool for high-quality teaching and real learning, but I also don't have to leave my own intuition and creativity at the door."
Angela Dougher, Special Educator, explains:
"As a Special Educator, I created T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook for my learners and am able to simply print the pages, make copies, and use them over and over again with the paraprofessionals that I supervise in our program. Our interdisciplinary team knows what they are doing for each step of instruction following a mini lesson plan and what to use when teaching regardless of the content."
Leigh Prince, Occupational Therapist, shares:
"All too often, therapists end up providing less integrated, profession-specific interventions and service delivery options that are disjointed from the learners' roles and participation in their natural settings. Using T.H.E. P.A.C.T. better enables related service providers to gear their direct service, consultation, and program planning toward integrated priorities with ongoing collaboration among team members."
Stacie Gay, Speech-Language Assistant, describes:
On Day #1 of a new school year, T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook has once again proven itself INVALUABLE. While training a paraprofessional working with a student who transitioned from middle to high school, I was able to pull out the 'ringed' workbook and quickly demonstrate how an activity is completed. I could see the stress level of the staff member diminish as she realized that she didn't have to remember or write down every detail of the instructions - she could SIMPLY refer to the workbook. Creating the workbook as a team has enabled us to integrate occupational, speech and language and academic goals in one activity!
Kathy Boudreau Special Educator, explains:
"T.H.E. P.A.C.T. helps when integrating students into general education curriculum. As a special educator, I am able to (not only) identify specific educational objectives, but now easily see the progress and delivery by paras on these objectives. T.H.E. P.A.C.T. also helps students navigate through the world of developmental service agencies, employment services, and voc rehab."
Tamara Tinder, Special Educator, shares:
"I have used T.H.E. P.A.C.T. and purchased resources on the framework. It has helped me dramatically improve the learning experiences of my students, as well as give my paraeducators and myself a common approach to utilize. I love the simplicity behind T.H.E. P.A.C.T."

More Workbook Testimonials
Stacie Gay, Speech-Language Assistant, describes:
"On Day #1 of a new school year, T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook has once again proven itself INVALUABLE. While training a paraprofessional working with a student who transitioned from middle to high school, I was able to pull out the ‘ringed' workbook and quickly demonstrate how an activity is completed. I could see the stress level of the staff member diminish as she realized that she didn't have to remember or write down every detail of the instructions - she could SIMPLY refer to the workbook. Creating the workbook as a team has enabled us to integrate occupational, speech and language and academic goals in one activity!"
Angela Dougher, Special Educator, explains:
"As a Special Educator, I created T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook for my learners and am able to simply print the pages, make copies, and use them over and over again with the paraprofessionals that I supervise in our program. Our interdisciplinary team knows what they are doing for each step of instruction following a mini lesson plan and what to use when teaching regardless of the content."
Bonnie Vaillancourt, President and Owner of Simplified Speech Solutions, LLC, states:
"T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Multimedia System contains hundreds of suggestions for low tech and high tech solutions to immediately assist you in implementing T.H.E. P.A.C.T. framework."
Diane Baker, Curriculum Specialist, explains:
"I've seen exponential rewards in my teachers' skills and enthusiasm and really positive outcomes for our learners because of T.H.E. P.A.C.T. You've given us the framework that we've needed and T.H.E. P.A.C.T. has made us better teachers, thinkers and a better school overall. It has steered us in a good direction and my goal for the upcoming school year is that we implement T.H.E. P.A.C.T. framework, as we embrace it even further as a school, beyond our informed language-based lessons as we think and frame learning in a new way as a school community."
Donna Jones, Special Education Administrator, remarks:
"When introduced to T.H.E. P.A.C.T., my first reaction was,'This will work for everyone - students, special educators, paraprofessionals, and parents!' T.H.E. P.A.C.T. lays the groundwork and support for Alternative Assessment Portfolios - key once again for students of all ages and grades, special educators, and parents."
Cynthia Gomez, Teacher, comments:
"Using T.H.E. P.A.C.T. has brought a new micro-focus to my curriculum planning. I have always known what I want my students to understand, now I know how to get them there."
Angela Dougher, Special Educator, feels that:
"The simplicity of creating T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook as a visual instruction guide to follow makes you want to use it time and time again. With one easy click of the mouse, my folder of my students' AT images pops up and, in seconds, I can import a photo of it. T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Workbook is brilliantly framed and SIMPLE to use in a school day!"
Tamara Tinder, Special Educator, shares:

Nerissa Hall, AAC Specialist and co-owner of Communicare in western Massachusetts, shares:
"With T.H.E. P.A.C.T., you can use the ideas tomorrow!"
Terry Tierney, Speech-Language Pathologist in New England, remarks:
"Phyl is giving us our 'outside of school' life back! No more working late into the evening modifying and creating for every curriculum topic."
Angela Dougher, Special Educator from the Hartford Autism Regional Program, remarks:
"When educators ask me how I adapt curriculum for my intensive needs population, I simply tell them that I use T.H.E. P.A.C.T. Framework. T.H.E. P.A.C.T. is the answer to adapting curriculum. I will never use anything else!"
Cara Leckwold, AAC Specialist from Anchorage, Alaska, finds that:
"T.H.E. P.A.C.T. is an easy framework for adapting any curriculum to any individual using the tools that are already available to you. Learners will have a practical framework to understand new information and communicate their new knowledge. You will have consistent tools to record progress, capitalize on a learner's strengths, and target areas for remediation."
Karen Hrank, Assistive Technology Specialist from North Branch New Jersey, explains:
"By using T.H.E. P.A.C.T., math skills can be improved using consistent learning activities and predictable AT supports for the required methods of drill, practice, and repetition. T.H.E. P.A.C.T. provides a consistent framework for presenting math concepts in a clear, concise format, allowing for varied activities and differentiated learning."
Tammy Carlson, Special Educator from New England, shares:
"I went to bed last night hearing your repeated words ... Learn About, Read About, Write About, and Talk About! T.H.E. P.A.C.T. makes so much sense. I have attended many workshops, but this, I must say, has topped them all!!! Your personal touch to your presentation was exceptional. I loved it. I went to the principal today to personally thank her for helping to make it happen for me to attend. She asked what I thought, and I told her how wonderful it is to attend a training and walk away with GREAT insight."
