Implementing communication in the classroom, home or worksite


Implementing Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is a journey for everyone in the persons environment. It needs buy-in from all parties.

These 2 YouTube clips are good reminders about what needs to happen.

1. Think about Skills, Knowledge, Policy, Practice and Attitude (Miranda). A light hearted, but important message. Language Stealers

2. Implementing new vocabulary or core vocabulary. This YouTube clip uses aided communication, but the way to teach core vocabulary, the support materials and record keeping is relevant to unaided communication too. Teaching a Core Vocabulary

Talk to me about other strategies for implementing AAC
