I think the discussion of looking at the child's abilities and deciding what level and then walking through the process on determining goals and strategies to reach goals was very effective. Reviewing the strategies to apply to case studies of actual children was very helpful.

I liked use of the polls to help participants begin to apply the material presented. It is clear that she is quite knowledgeable about the topic. My only suggestion would be to consider use of videos for the case studies as it is often nice to visualize the type of communicator being discussed.

Very neuronormative content. Heavily focused on systems/strategies such as PECS which is an ABA based system. No mention of motor planning. We are NOT “masters of sabotage” as SLPs and sabotage should not be the primary method for eliciting language for emergent communicators. When talking about social goals, greetings were the primary focus which, again, ties to neuronormative view points.

Review of communication levels of AAC users was especially helpful, as was applying the levels to actual case studies. Information on practical and realistic communication goals per level of AAC communicator helped me to consider whether or not the goals I created for the AAC users on my caseload were realistic and achievable given their level of communication ability.

I will be returning to this content often, toward solidifying and applying it. It is excellent instruction in the hierarchy of AAC communication levels, language competency domains, sample goals and strategies to target those goals. I really appreciate the polling the instructor did - excellent reinforcement of presented information, and a fun way to break up the course.
