Essential for SLPs, OTs, PTs, educators, and other professionals in school settings, this book helps readers establish a beginning functional communicative repertoire for learners with severe disabilities. Professionals will start with an in-depth intervention framework, including a guide to AAC modes and technologies, variables to consider when selecting AAC, and how AAC research can be used to support practice. Then they’ll get explicit, evidence-based instructional strategies they’ll use to help children and young adults. Includes a CD-ROM with more than 35 blank forms and sample filled-in forms.
