Abstract:
The second edition of Fundamentals of AAC: A Case-Based Approach to Enhancing Communication continues to be a course-friendly textbook designed to walk readers through the theoretical and clinical underpinnings of assessment, intervention, and consultation for individuals with complex communication needs across the lifespan. Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) encompasses a variety of communication methods and is used by those with a wide range of speech and language impairments. With a consistent framework and descriptive case studies, as well as input from various stakeholders, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of the needs of persons who use AAC and how to provide them with ethically and culturally considerate support.Unlike other texts on this topic, this book empowers readers to visualize AAC in action. Each chapter begins with fundamental concepts and principles, followed by a relevant case study that presents the concepts and principles ...in action... that guide the reader through the use of clinical decision-making in AAC. Every case study is designed to underscore the cultural, linguistic, and social variability inherent to the fields of AAC and communication sciences, and how each individual influences the manifestation of the AAC system, treatment, and implementation plans.
