Join us for our December NWACS AAC Learning Network virtual event!
TOPIC: Thoughtful Inquiry: Spelling for Communication (a three-part series)
Description: Over the past several years, we have seen more and more non-speaking young adults share their experiences growing up without AAC. Many are now communicating by spelling, pointing to letters, or selecting keys on a keyboard or touchscreen. What can our evidence-based practice tell us about supporting spelling as a method of communication? How do we think about the past and consider what we see and experience in the present to make future decisions?

PART 3: Thursday, December 12, 2024
