I continue to get more and more patient on my caseload at the Therapy Center who use AAC and I need more training with AAC. I have brief 1/2 hours sessions and back to back sessions and I really needed this information. The presenter provided a lot of information but I still need more personally. Her teaching style was clear and her powerpoint was substaintial enough with research to support what she imparted.

I very much appreciated the ways to use Core Vocabulary to participate in academics, as this is often the part I find most difficult when consult with teachers. They frequently request fringe vocabulary that is very specific to the classroom, so I appreciated strategies and ideas of how to include unit vocabulary on no tech devices as a temporary system and how to answer questions using core vocabulary without having to include specific academic words.

I HATE trying to Read the Presenter's Mind to interpret misleading or downright contradictory questions.MYTH Fringe words are motivating as stated or NOT--nowhere does the question state 'perceived' as motivating. HOW can you ALWAYS use Core when we understand you might use them as MOTIVATING with EMERGING communicators. It can't be both ways. I changed #8 and #9 from Correct to Incorrect responses- Tossing in poorly worded or impossible choices to limit perfect scores--especially when wrong? These CEUs are all about LEARNING who has time for the idiot games we all tolerated in grad and undergrad--clarity in communication--please! REALLY makes me grumpy:)
