AT for your Child with Complex Cognitive Needs: Communication Supports

AbleNet University free webinar

“Part 2 of a 3-part series

Communication implementation supports at home or school don’t come with a download. Whether your child is using a free or simple AAC App or one that is complex or costs hundreds of dollars, child and partner strategies probably aren’t as easy as the click to “install” button. This session will take you through five steps to AAC success that are used in real classrooms and at home. These strategies have been blended from a variety of implementation approaches and updated for today’s AAC apps.           

Step 1) Have a Plan> This webinar will begin with an overview of different classroom-based implementation strategies available, giving you a foundation of choice for your students.

Step 2) Everybody Onboard> We will review all the classroom stakeholders who make “and/or break” the implementation of AAC in the classroom. How to bring them around and, how you can see it their way.

Step 3) Teaching Communication> Everyone needs to know where the student is headed communicatively, not just the SLP. Using AAC needs to be taught during a real activity in a classroom setting, not just at a table being fed to touch a button. 

Steps 4&5) well, you just have to join the webinar and find out.”
