Love this!
Parents using KWS with their child need ongoing support with its implementation - from practitioners with KWS skills!
We all use these natural gestures, don’t we?! 👍🖕😂
We all use these natural gestures, don’t we?! 👍🖕😂
Frequency of core vocabulary is consistent across clinical populations, activities, places, topics and demographic groups, as well as both monolingual and bilingual speakers, and children with SLI #AugComm #ISAAC2018
Hey @stijn_deckers check out the Key Word Sign Australia “Getting Started with Key Word Sign” book at the @scopeaust booth at #ISAAC2018. Interactive and core vocabulary emphasised, rather than content words, when beginning your KWS journey!
Fab presentation demonstrating the unrealised potential of KWS to support communication and language learning by Libby Brownlie - time for Cinderella to claim the glass slipper #isaac2018
Impact of KWS via telepractice #isaac2018
Here's a great website with a bunch of links to really useful AT links wati.org/resources/ #ISAAC2018 #assistivetech #AAC
“Going from picture of objects to symbols is outdated. You need to start with Core language including abstract words right from the start.” Dr Lori Geist @TobiiDynavox Learning Lounge #isaac2018 #corewords #tobiidynavox
Now THIS is what you call merch!
Such a rare opportunity for @kwsaustralia presenters from all over the country to get together! #ISAAC2018 @KeyWordSignNSW @CathyOlsson @accesseasyengli
Some practical and fun activities for AAC training
The tips and resources for teaching #AAC are coming thick and fast from @VickiBostonSLP! Here's a few you can check out: 1- youtube.com/channel/UCfvD2… 2- childrenshospital.org/Centers-and-Se… 3- praacticalaac.org/?s=recipes #ISAAC2018
Loved listening to @MeredithAllan at Opening Ceremony today - #KeyWordSign so much a part of her communication! #ISAAC2018
How to 'play' with the AAC in your training: Groups of 3 ppl. Give 1 core board, 1 activity board and one board full of nouns. Give them a game/activity. One person is an observer. They will discover which boards are more useful! #ISAAC2018 @VickiBostonSLP
