Advantages of Augmentative and Alternative Communication Use in Individuals with SATB2 Gene Mutation
This poster discusses the gene mutation SATB2 associated syndrome and how Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices benefit the group. The history of this mutation will be discussed, along with its side effects, dysmorphology and cause. An examination of how using AAC devices facilitates language, increases social communication, and encourages oral language will be provided. Available AAC devices will be provided, along with the research supporting the use of AAC on non-verbal children.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1010/thumbnail.jp
Speech-Language Pathologists’ Experience with Augmentative and Alternative Communication in the Public-School Early Childhood Setting
Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices are used to facilitate communication in individuals with speech and/or language deficits. By facilitating receptive and expressive language, it provides a means of communication in which a child can communicate and be understood by others. AAC is growing among the early childhood setting as research has shown that earlier access to AAC can improve communication skills even at an early age (Branson & Demchak, 2009). Speech-language pathologists (SLP) play a substantial role in AAC intervention among preschoolers. They are responsible for conducting the evaluation, selecting the appropriate AAC method, providing intervention, communicating with and educating the family and other professionals, and ensuring the child has a naturalistic environment to use AAC to communicate (Singh, Diong & Kamal, 2020). As AAC intervention is growing, it is important to further research AAC practices directly from SLPs themselves.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1045/thumbnail.jp
