‼️ 💫 AAC HIGHLIGHT: See the link in our bio for former AAC Distinguished Lectures from @atiaorg ‘s annual conference. #atia #prentkelecture #aac #assistivetechnology #assistivetech
What is assistive technology (AT)? The USDOE provides federal regulations regarding the education of individuals with disabilities from Birth- 21. These regulations were amended in 2015 and define assistive technology (AT) as both a device and a service

🤩 Now that you know all about the 4Ps of AAC, for both self-advocates and educators, make sure to share them far a wide! 🔗 Check out the link in bio to download your own copies of the 4Ps of AAC. #4PsofAAC #augmentativeandalternativecommunication #AAC #vcuace #bestpractices
🤔 Is the communication partner Persistent? 💪Modeling and training are some of the most important parts of AAC. Making sure it's a part of every day and used throughout the day is one of the most important ways educators can support AAC use. #4PsofAAC
🤔 Is the AAC Personalized? ✨ Some personalization can easily be done by the AAC user, some will require some support. After a bit users may be able to program their own AAC. In the beginning they may need help. Focus on matching the features of the device to the users needs.
🤔 Is the AAC System Present? 📍 Now that we've talked about the AAC user side of the 4Ps, let's talk about the educator side. When thinking about the 4Ps as an educator, you'll be looking more at your class as a whole as well as at individual student needs. #4PsofAAC
💪 We've already done the Self-Advocate edition of the 4Ps! Over the next few days we will be breaking down the Educator Edition. Make sure to like and follow so you catch all of our updates! 🥳 #4PsofAAC #augmentativeandalternativecommunication #AAC #vcuace #bestpractices

We often think of AAC as one particular high tech device or low tech board, but it’s more of a communication system. 🎮 🏊 Can you take an iPad with TD Snap into a pool? Absolutely not! There are always going to be scenarios where one means of communication will not work.
🎉 TechKnowledgy conference HIGHLIGHT! 💫 Did you know that Melanie Derry from @vcuace will be at #TechK2024? Melanie, the creator of the 4Ps will be there with all of her AT Network friends!💫 👀 Have you registered yet? Check out the link in bio to register!
🤔 Is the communication partner Patient? ⏳ One of the hardest things about AAC is making connections with others due to the amount of wait time needed for AAC users to formulate their responses. This is something that must be taught to both adults and peers. #AAC
