It aims to equip practicing clinicians, educators and students with the necessary background to use AT and AAC with their clients. This book also sheds light on the many different roles and functions of AT and AAC for a large variety of clinical populations, and suggests solutions the reader can implement immediately. Although a particular focus is set on communication disorders, described applications and resources also apply to individuals with developmental disabilities and sensory impairments. In addition to outlining most recent low and high technology, this book makes a particularly strong effort to teach general principles and guidelines for successful AT and AAC interventions regardless of what particular technology is used. This resource is a crucial addition to the bookshelf of any professional dealing with AT and/or AAC, including speech-language pathologists, special educators, occupational therapists, physical therapists, early intervention specialists, students in professional programs, users of AT or AAC, their families, and applied researchers. This is a must read for novices and seasoned professional alike.Augmentative and Alternative Communications Perspectives4.People with disabilitiesMeans of communicationTechnological innovationsCommunication devices for people with disabilitiesHEALTH & FITNESS / Hearing & SpeechbisacshMEDICAL / Audiology & Speech PathologybisacshPeople with disabilitiesMeans of communicationTechnological innovations.Communication devices for people with disabilities.HEALTH & FITNESS / Hearing & SpeechMEDICAL / Audiology & Speech Pathology616.8/55Wendt Oliver1974-1787986Quist Raymond W1787987Lloyd Lyle L1787988NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910958241803321Assistive technology4322131UNINA
