Considering AAC Language Representation Methods
In the quest to optimize communication performance for individuals who use AAC, one of the most significant factors is the choice of language representation methods (LRMs). Recent evidence shows that, perhaps more than any other issue, LRMs influence communication performance. ASHA (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association) documents that relate to AAC service delivery and evidence-based practice put the burdens of considering how language is generated and optimizing communication on the SLP. This tool facilitates the interaction with the AAC client and family members on this topic. It is designed to sit between the SLP and client/family. The SLP works from notes presented and the client/family see the other side.
