This study compares the learning of Blissymbols by six mildly cognitively impaired children by means of a global and an analytic approach. Training consisted of two stages. The first was the training of eight compound symbols and the second the training of seven single configuration symbols. The study concludes that Blissymbols as an entrance into literacy can be taught successfully to cognitively impaired individuals by means of either an analytic or a global approach. The analytic approach seems to have greater long-term benefits, as the subjects instructed by the analytic approach consistently performed better in the generalization and re-evaluation procedures. The analytic approach, however, was much more time consuming than the global approach in terms of the length of training required. The implications for literacy development and augmentative and alternative communication systems are discussed.
