Competency in Augmentative Alternative Communication

NPWT Strategic Competency in AAC- We will briefly discuss the four areas of communicative competencies (Linguistic, Operational, Social and Strategic). We will take a closer look at Strategic Competency and introduce a framework to identify needs in this area as well as goals to target these needs at different areas. We will explore vocabulary for targeting strategic skills and review planning tools to implement with clients/students. Explain at least two benefits of addressing strategic competence for an individual using AAC. Identify 1-2 strategic competency goals for an AAC user at the Emergent, Context-Dependent and Independent communication ability levels. Describe the types of vocabulary that would target strategic competency in a communication device.
