Literacy Ideas for AAC
Training session from AT4Kids covering strategies for teaching literacy for students who use AAC.
Molly's Voice: Books and Diversity
This is the third in a series of blog posts highlighting the great work of the University of Memphis graduate students in speech-language pathology. For their AAC class with Vicki Haddix (one of the TN Talks project leads), they choose their own final projects, and many of those final projects are potentially very useful for those of us working with students who use AAC. WIth the students’ permission, the work is being shared here.
