# Complete text and tactile alternatives · six A4 aids

The six original pages use numbered boxes and high-contrast dark words on white. All meaning and order is stated below; no answer depends on colour, an arrow or exact spatial vision. Each page can be read by screen reader, neutral adult, sign/AAC, large print or a learner-directed scribe. For tactile use, write each numbered heading and its lines on a separate large card, arrange **1 → 2 → 3 → 4** in a line and let the learner move a source phrase/token beside a card. A neutral reader gives the words but not which conclusion to choose. SVG has a title and description; PDF text is selectable. These are paper scaffolds, not real measurements or approvals.

Top: “Use the labels in order; each box can be read alone. Point, write, direct a partner or speak/AAC your choice.”

1. **MODEL / SOURCE:** “What was drawn, stated or observed? Label invented values and the system boundary.”
2. **CLAIM:** “Write the exact claim before deciding. Does it report, predict or generalise?”
3. **TEST / CONTRAST:** “What variable, control or comparison matters? Keep an anomaly visible until checked.”
4. **LIMIT / NEXT STEP:** “Name what the source cannot establish. Choose one repeat or measurement to seek.”

## [HASS source and choice grid](hass-source-grid.pdf) · [SVG](hass-source-grid.svg)

Same numbered-card orientation.

1. **ORIGIN + STATUS:** “Who made this, when and why? Simulation is not an archive or real tally.”
2. **EXACT DETAIL:** “Copy a number or a short source phrase. Check units and who is represented.”
3. **SECOND CRITERION:** “Compare access, evidence, cost or viewpoint. A quick answer may omit a group or condition.”
4. **BOUNDED DECISION:** “Say what follows from the supplied detail. Name one source you still need.”

## [HPE choice and participation](hpe-participation.pdf) · [SVG](hpe-participation.svg)

Same numbered-card orientation. Cards may be read privately; no personal experience needs sharing.

1. **OFFER CHOICE:** “Ask which role or route works for the person. Do not assign a fixed ability label.”
2. **ASK + HEAR NO:** “Use a specific request before touch or sharing. Accept refusal; choose a waiting/other route.”
3. **TRY OR DIRECT:** “Use safe movement only with local approval. Record who actually moved or performed.”
4. **CHECK FAIRNESS:** “What did each willing person get to do? A paper plan is not observed participation.”

## [Technology decision mat](technology-decision.pdf) · [SVG](technology-decision.svg)

Same numbered-card orientation.

1. **USER + PURPOSE:** “What does the imaginary user need? Which data are actually required?”
2. **RULE / CRITERIA:** “Write a condition that can be tested. Include a counterexample or edge case.”
3. **TEST + RECORD:** “What did the paper/code model output? Separate observed from predicted output.”
4. **REVISE + LIMIT:** “Change one design factor and test again. Paper success is not real-world approval.”

## [Arts process page](arts-process.pdf) · [SVG](arts-process.svg)

Same numbered-card orientation. “Performance” and “presentation” are marked only if observed.

1. **INTENTION:** “What might an audience notice or infer? Name the fictional source or original idea.”
2. **ELEMENT CHOICE:** “Choose pause, line, crop, sound or focus. Describe its position in words.”
3. **MAKE / REHEARSE:** “Record the actual work, not only a plan. Performance is marked only if observed.”
4. **FEEDBACK / EDIT:** “Quote one specific observation or prompt. Show the changed line, count or frame.”

## [Eight-count music score](eight-count-score.pdf) · [SVG](eight-count-score.svg)

Top: “Eight equal boxes. A rest is a deliberate silence. One box = one count; read left to right.” First row, in order: **1 TAP, 2 REST, 3 TAP, 4 TAP, 5 REST, 6 TAP, 7 REST, 8 TAP.** The same linear original score is `TAP / REST / TAP / TAP / REST / TAP / REST / TAP`. Below it are **two blank eight-box rows**, labelled Layer 1 and Layer 2, for a learner's own score. Final box asks: “Which boxes rest? Where does layer 2 enter? Was sound actually made or only planned?” A tactile version uses two parallel rows of eight numbered spaces. A raised dot/token means tap; an empty but labelled `REST` token means intentional silence. A second layer can begin at any chosen count; Day18 practice tries box 5. No audio playback or performance is required to read or compose.
