Description

The National Reading Panel reports that there are five components of effective reading instruction: Phonemic Awareness, Alphabetic Principle, Reading Comprehension, Vocabulary, and Fluency. However, research is limited on how to best instruct non-verbal students and/or those with limited physical access to standard stimuli. GoTalkNOW was created as an AAC application but has arguably great value as a literacy tool. This class will detail how you can create and share activities that target the necessary components of reading instruction through digital literacy opportunities. GoTalkNOW allows you to create digital books or scenes with hot spots linked to recorded speech or video to target many of the components of reading instruction while providing alternative access to those who need it.

Objectives

-Participants will learn how to create custom pages, including grid and scene-based pages, with hot posts for content.

-Participants will learn about supporting apps that can create custom content photos and videos compatible with GoTalkNOW for literacy instruction.

-Participants will understand why GoTalkNOW is optimal for literacy instruction for those with sensory processing disorders.

Learning Objectives: Participants will learn how to:

1. Create a visual learning Scene

2. Link hot spots to literacy activities

3. Access additional resources from Attainment related to literacy

Thanks to all who reached out to express appreciation for Tabi Jones-Wohleber's training resources in the MASTER PAL series. Many of you have already used the slides, video links, handouts, and discussion points that were shared over the past few months, and others have plans to do so. In this final post, Tabi shares some of the 'lessons learned' in creating and utilizing these materials.

If you're new to the series, you can check out each of the 11 modules here.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::;
Over the last 11 weeks, facilitation strategies for communication partners have been shared through the Model as a MASTER PAL series. Model as a MASTER PAL is a framework for supporting communication partners of those who use AAC that evolved in response to the need go beyond the imperative and always present conversations of "use core words" and "model AAC".

It started as a list of ideas to address the subtle nuances of communication partner behaviors and belief systems. But I quickly realized that just discussing the items on the list was not fruitful. I needed meat...context, examples, rationale. So it grew. It grew into casual structured conversations with teachers and parents. Then (provided invaluable collaboration with and feedback from my teammates Trish and Kelly) it grew into highly structured PL sessions that were reproducible so that anyone with the materials could facilitate these very important conversations. This framework consists of 11 modules on the following topics (plus an introductory module).

As we went through these modules in their various forms valuable lessons were learned along the way. Some called for revisions of the content or organization of activities and ideas. Others impacted how we prioritized delivery and allocated time. As you explore these resources, consider the following when you are trying to figure out how Model as a MASTER PAL can work for you:

Modules can be shared in any order. They are complementary, but not cumulative. So if wait time is a topic that requires immediate attention in your school, then the "Time" module may be among the first your list. In fact, after "Model" I've started jumping straight to "Presume Potential" because it seems like a great way to lay the foundation for all the conversations that follow.

This framework is meant to be shared over time as a form of ongoing support. This is NOT intended as a one or two day workshop that is tackled all at once. It is a means to provide depth to the AAC implementation conversation throughout the school year. It has been great for my teams that are always asking for more but want more than Core. Additionally, there is overlap between some modules because some content is relevant in various ways, AND we all know that to learn something well we need to hear it 3-5 times. Built-in redundancy (over time) for the win!

The Warm-Up Discussions that go with almost every module set the stage for participants to relate to the topic in their own lives. It also breaks the ice and gets folks talking. The discourse that comes with the information that follows is full of openness and thoughtfulness. When time constrained, resist the urge to omit these discussions. They bring more to the interaction than you might think.

Make it your own. There is a lot of material in the Google Slides. And the Facilitator Guidelines include additional resources. Take the liberty to use as much or as little as content as you need. I find myself always trying to fit more into less time or to offer training and support in unconventional ways. For instance, currently, I am posting MASTER PAL "spotlight" information on the back of bathroom doors throughout one of my schools.

Allow time for discussion. Because these training modules call on folks to reflect on their own experiences and be thoughtful about how they support AAC, the need for discussion was apparent during every session. Often the most valuable thing people took away without was the ideas and problem-solving they came out of the discussions.

I am extremely appreciative of the opportunity to share Model as a MASTER PAL on PrAACtical AAC, and on Talking with Tech (awesome podcast, if you aren't already in the know) as it has given me the opportunity to reflect on the key takeaways each module offers. After going so deep with each topic, the need for brevity became apparent to provide a snapshot of the scope of this framework to make it digestible and shareable. Take a look here. I bet you will find it useful too!!

Speak your words. Use AAC. Communication is NOT an imitation task.

Motivation is the driver in all of us. AAC can be hard. Make it worth it!

Accept Multiple Modalities
...to validate communicative attempts. Teach communication is POWER!

Honor all modalities and respond by modeling AAC as much as possible.

Life is not a test. Use statements (comment, describe, share information) to foster quality interactions!

You can't hurry AAC. Language takes time to develop.

AAC also requires wait time. Be a patient communication partner.

Genuine engagement and mutual respect are where learning happens.

AAC supports receptive as well as expressive language.

Take off the pressure. Keep modeling.

There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a

butterfly." -Buckminster Fuller

Prompting shapes positive practice. Independence is the goal.

Observe first. Meet the child where she is. Respond mindfully.

Complex Communication Needs (CCN)

Children and youth with complex communication needs (CCN) benefit from assistive technology and augmentative and alternative communication to support communication and language development. Students who have complex communication needs are unable to communicate effectively using speech alone. They and their communication partners may benefit from using alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) methods, either temporarily or permanently.

AAC systems of communication do not rely on speech. Children and youth who require AAC may have some speech but not enough to meet their daily needs. AAC systems may be used to augment existing communication skills or provide an alternative to speech.

This one-hour implementation class reviews how people use language to communicate and what you can do to help individuals get beyond basic requesting. Practical examples and materials will be used throughout the training.

This is a beginner/advanced beginner class intended for those who are new to the field of AAC.

This was an excellent course that efficiently covers additional ideas for intervention with students who use AAC. It's easy to get stuck in the "requesting mode." This takes you out of that place to expand to teaching other functions of communication within a naturalistic environment. I have some great therapy ideas and techniques. Thank you! Becky M.

PRC&#39;s online trainings are quick and efficient. I loved that I could take my lunch to learn something new that I could start incorporating immediately into my therapy plans. Teresa H.

This was a great course for learning how to move beyond requesting. Too often, students will only request and before this course, I had no idea how to design lessons and activities to help students learn to use their device for other language functions. Diane B.

Beth was a confident trainer who truly understood and had passion about the topic. She was prepared and had us involved as much as possible, which really made the experience richer. She also used her personality and spoke with emotion. So many trainings are boring with a Ben Stein-esque trainer who drones on the whole time. This was NOT one of them. Justin S.

It's Not Rocket Science: Planning Language Lessons from Core Standards

Students who use AAC typically receive much of their language intervention in the classroom. Given this, it is important to teach vocabulary and language concepts as well as academic content when delivering curriculum. In order to achieve this, often the curriculum may need to be modified and the essence of the core standard identified to match the abilities and learning styles of the students.

This class focuses on using backwards planning as a method to create authentic and meaningful lessons for emerging communicators. The sample lesson will include: identifying a Common Core standard, reframing that standard into a child-friendly learning target, planning for assessment, and determining the activity, instructional materials and lesson plan. A science lesson is used for the example; however, this process can be applied to any content area. Video of educators and emerging communicators who use AAC will be shown to demonstrate the various stages of creating a lesson using backwards planning.

This class is intended for people who educate students who use AAC in a classroom setting.

This course provides excellent strategies for using apps to develop language and generalize that language to other activities. It provides resources to show how the development of specific core vocabulary addresses Common Core Standards. The chart of vocabulary that can be elicited with each app is an excellent tool to help determine which app would be useful at each stage of language development, and to provide ideas for language expansion. Dawn M.

I loved this course. It was fun and really got me thinking about "fun" ways to teach new vocabulary or reinforce learned vocabulary. Marsha B.

Janet gave an excellent presentation with wonderful written support materials! Nancy I.
