More in AAC Implementation
ableU Live & Local-Nashville: AAC in Action
Join us for an in-person educational event on integrating augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) into daily life, with complimentary food and refreshments provided. A panel of speech-language pathologists and a parent of a device user will discuss device implementation, parent training for carryover, and interdisciplinary collaboration across service settings.
Build Capacity in AAC Implementation Across Environments by Shifting Mindsets
The need to build capacity while supporting students with complex communication needs is critical. SLP's and AAC teams need to deepen and expand their knowledge base in AAC implementation. Having the knowledge in the hands of one expert is not a sustainable model of support for AAC. To ensure a larger impact, we must move to a model that builds capacity. What tools and strategies can we use to shift the current expert mindset? Examples of how multiple district level teams embraced a capacity building model supported by a county level AAC team will be shared. Participants will be encouraged to consider their current state and determine what shifts can be made toward a capacity building model.
AAC and Transition: Life Starts at Twenty-One
This presentation discusses critical elements for a successful transition to adulthood. Does the AAC device transition with the student or is it owned by the school district? Do school age teams consider vocabulary selection for adult roles and relationships? We need to consider the goals of the individual. AAC users participate in a variety of adult contexts from college to the workplace. Planning needs to start well before the age of twenty-one.
