The amount of detail and information provided on how to focus on implementing AAC and aided language input in a way that goes beyond just some of the more basic language we tend to model for students on the devices was very helpful. There were also a lot of good tips presented that can be shared with staff members as well who have students with AAC devices or low-tech core communication boards and etc.

Very neuronormative content. Heavily focused on systems/strategies such as PECS which is an ABA based system. No mention of motor planning. We are NOT “masters of sabotage” as SLPs and sabotage should not be the primary method for eliciting language for emergent communicators. When talking about social goals, greetings were the primary focus which, again, ties to neuronormative view points.

Review of communication levels of AAC users was especially helpful, as was applying the levels to actual case studies. Information on practical and realistic communication goals per level of AAC communicator helped me to consider whether or not the goals I created for the AAC users on my caseload were realistic and achievable given their level of communication ability.
