Topic:  Generating design ideas for a Baby Bliss onscreen keyboard editor / creator

Description:
The Baby Bliss Bot project at the IDRC would like to design an editor for customizing on-screen keyboards (OSK) for people with disabilities. Baby Bliss users can use the onscreen keyboard to select a symbol which then can lead to another level of keys or keyboard. For instance, if one presses the "transportation" key, it opens the transportation keyboard. From there, someone could go even deeper into another level of keys.

The project team would like you to help generate ideas for an editor that will allow users to create different keyboards, keyboard levels, and navigation between levels of keyboards.
