This is the long version (but you did ask!)....
The points of similarity between Makaton and Signalong are that both are key-word sign-supporting systems which use mainly BSL signs, and are intended for use with people who have language and communication difficulties mainly arising from learning disabilities. Because of the BSL root, signs for words which occur in both lexicons are usually the same, but there are some differences.
In the Makaton Core Vocabulary they use the same (or virtually the same) signs for concepts such as doll/baby, cup/drink, bed/sleep and look/see. It is possible that this arose because in the beginning Makaton was advised by members of the Royal Association for the Deaf, and BSL users frequently use the same signs for these concepts, relying on context to aid nderstanding. Because Signalong was originally introduced to assist with language development programmes we use one sign per concept, one concept per sign.
There are some significant differences in presentation and accessibility.
If you have used Signalong you will be familiar with the way that we analyse signs for their handshape, orientation, placement and movement, supported by clear line drawings. This means that when they understand the methodology, practitioners can accurately reproduce signs from the manuals without having to attend additional classes or reference to a trainer. Makaton does not have this methodology.
Signalong has published over 16,000 signs since 1992; I am not sure about the total number of signs published by Makaton since 1974, but when I last counted it was around 4,000. Signalong offers a much wider vocabulary, enabling a wider range of opportunities for users.
With the exception of symbols for sexual awareness, Signalong has not published its own symbols, preferring to work with Widgit Software on the development of their Rebus symbol system (now Symbols for Literacy). As early as 1995 our organisations collaborated to ensure that there was a Rebus symbol match for the 1600-sign Signalong Basic Vocabulary, and in March 2008 Signalong and Widgit signed an agreement on mutal co-operation in resource development, with the aim that there should be sign and symbol matches for all resources published by the 2 organisations. An additional advantage of working with Widgit is that they are UK agents for the PCS symbols system, which is less abstract than either Widgit SFL or Makaton, giving users a greater choice.
Our training programmes also have significant differences. We do not provide training in symbol use, as this is available from Widgit. In addition to our ordinary Introduction and Foundation courses we have a range of courses which are accredited by the Open College Network, ranging from Entry level (for service users) up to our Tutor Training Course, which is accredited at level 3. Courses for practitioners focus on the development of skills, since this gives the practitioner flexibility in the selection of signs. Signalong tutors are free to adapt their courses to any vocabulary, provided that basic principles are taught. I am not aware that this is possible with Makaton - perhaps it is something that you could ask them.
Please come back with any questions that you may have
Mike
