A low-tech option is a great tool as a back-up to the dedicated solution, use for modeling or during water activities. These low-tech printable options are available to support some of the WordPower ™ files. Pre-made downloadable options are offered for the WordPower42 Basic, 60 Basic, 60 and the 108 location files. Note the 108 location option will include a full page flip to verbs. WordPower48 Español Básico recently joined the WordPower low-tech family. The flipbook downloads include instructions to make the flipbooks for these great low-tech options. These options are designed with flips to the access more vocabulary within various categories, similar to the way you would navigate the vocabulary on a NovaChat® or ChatFusion™.

*Please note that printers may have variations that cause downloaded pages do not line up perfectly. It is recommended to print, laminate, cut and check the alignment of the flips before you punch holes. Adjust by cutting or aligning flips before punching holes.

You will find personal manual communication board options and poster size options. The manual communication boards can be printed on standard or legal size paper. The poster size options allow you to customize the size. We have tried printing at 34.5 by 53 inches with success. In addition to the 88 location Core Words Poster, you will find an option to download the individual core words (grouped 4 on a page) to create pull-offs to the poster or build the poster through individual buttons.

If you want to create your own customized low -tech option, check out the video tutorial providing you with a how-to demonstration. The ChatEditor software is used to customize the low tech options. Create a low-tech option using the customized NovaChat or ChatFusion file.

This expanded chart includes an in-depth comparison of features & support resources across the most commonly used 13 robust iOS symbol-based AAC apps:

Avaz AAC - Lifetime Edition

Clicker Communicator: AAC

CoughDrop

GoTalk Now / GoTalk Now Plus

Grid for iPad VPP

LAMP Words for Life

Niki Talk 2 Pro

Proloquo2Go (plus some info about features in the Proloquo + Proloquo Coach subscription-based app)

Speak for Yourself

Talk Suite Pro

TD Snap AAC (formerly known as Snap Core First)

TouchChat HD with WordPower

Weave Chat AAC

Inclusion in the "Top 13" is based on features, long term availability of apps by that developer in the App Store, good history of that app developer updating apps, having patients who benefited from using the app, gathering data from app recommendations from SLPs who have expertise in AAC, etc. and then distilling all that info into one PDF. You can search to find exactly what you're looking for and can copy wording from this chart and paste it into your AAC reports to save time.
** All info is comprehensive, 100% up to date and verified by app developers **
I am maintaining and updating this chart to help meet the need for current and comprehensive info to be used in feature matching.

.

Includes info about features in these particular apps that may be helpful as folks are exploring ways to modify AAC for Gestalt Language Processors.
.
A supplemental handout "Unique Features in Symbol-Based AAC Apps to Support Gestalt Language Processors" is included with purchase. It includes info related to all 13 apps + additional info about features in 8 free and affordable symbol-based AAC apps (mainly iOS, some Android and a couple of Window) priced $2.99 or less. This supplemental handout is exclusive content that is only available as part of this resource (supplemental handout updated 2/4/24) .
See a preview of the supplemental handout: https://youtu.be/XNj82DrJ2oA (general idea... the handout has been updated since that was recorded)

.

Watch the TPT preview video where I'm viewing the PDF on my iPad in the free Xodo app. You'll get a feel for how much info will be at your fingertips in this chart. There are 135 rows in the chart. But it's super easy to use the "search" option to find what you want quickly.

This product also includes free access to 13 unlisted YouTube videos where I highlight some of the most unique features in each app as well as several other more in-depth videos related to specific features.

Four rows are devoted to info about using the Blue2 Bluetooth Switch Interface, AeroSwith Bluetooth Switch Interface, iSwitch Bluetooth Switch Interface & Cosmo Bluetooth Switch Interface. Includes specs, details about which apps will work and which apps won't work with each switch interface, details about the settings needed to get them to work & several exclusive unlisted YouTube videos about these.

.

For those asking about the the Proloquo + Proloquo Coach app: I have some info about them in this resource in the column about Proloquo2Go. I agree that Proloquo + Proloquo Coach is a great app but is missing some features to make it officially into the top 13. I was part of beta testing the Proloquo + Proloquo Coach app and have continued to provide feedback to AssistiveWare. Top of my list is the Proloquo app needs to allow editing of existing buttons to meet the cultural and religious identity of that individual. There have been a couple of discussions in AssistiveWare's Proloquo and Proloquo Coach Community Facebook group about the need to allow flexibility in editing existing buttons. There's also a need for being able to use recorded speech to get proper pronunciation of some names. https://www.facebook.com/groups/381836780082796/?ref=share&mibextid=S66gvF. I have a free handout that compares Proloquo + Proloquo Coach to Proloquo2Go. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Comparison-of-Proloquo2Go-Proloquo-Proloquo-Coach-AAC-Apps-updated-11623-7933287

.

The PDF is not intended to be printed. It one very long page that's interactive so you can scroll, zoom in to see content and tap on links. It's best viewed in the free Xodo PDF reader that can be used on almost any platform. See this blog post for new info about Xodo: https://omazingkidsllc.com/2021/11/06/free-xodo-pdf-reader-app/. It can also be viewed in the Books app on your iPad.

Important info for those wanting to view the PDF on a Mac computer: Save the PDF to your computer and then open the PDF online in Xodo: https://www.xodo.com/app/#/

A link to the Alternative Printable Version can be found at the very bottom left corner within this PDF. That version includes a link to the alternative printable version of the supplemental handout. That will allow you access to a separate PDF that can be downloaded and is formatted for printing. The link to that changes every month as I update this resource.
Important Information:
This is an unbiased view at the features across apps. I do not have a financial affiliation with any app developers.

The information in this chart was compiled based on my extensive use of each app, in-depth trials of each app using the most current version on devices running the most current iOS, reading through app user guides, watching recent recorded webinars, consulting directly with app developers and providing them with the opportunity to review the content before this tool was published.

Inclusion in the "Top 13" was based on features, long term availability in the App Store, good history of being updated, having patients who benefited from using the app, gathering data from app recommendations from SLPs who have expertise in AAC, etc.

The purpose of this chart isn't to name a "best" app since the "best" AAC for that individual is the combination of options (variety of apps, SGDs, no-tech, etc.) that meets their needs at that moment in time.

All apps included on this chart have varying levels of "robustness". Inclusion of an app on this chart does NOT imply that it has the same overall robustness as another app on this chart. But that isn't discounting the importance of the features in those apps.

I would not expect any app to have every feature in this chart nor would every feature be applicable to every potential AAC user.

This app comparison chart is intended to be a tool to help SLPs and others make informed decisions when choosing iOS symbol-based AAC apps for consideration during the process of an AAC eval, feature matching and trial of options.

It is important to try out any app with the potential user before making a purchasing recommendation or decision. This is also important when using any extra hardware (keyguards, switches, switch interfaces, carrying straps, stands, mounts, etc...) to support AAC use.

There are many reasons why one would consider a traditional SGD vs. an iPad or any other tablet with an app: durability, warranty, tech support, built-in switch ports for scanning, eye gaze access, etc... But there are many folks who may not have a funding source for a traditional SGD. And there are things about having AAC on an iPad or iPhone that make it a great option for particular users.

This PDF is intended to interactive so you can zoom in to see content and tap on links. It contains lots of links and those may not work if trying to use it in Safari or another browser. It's best viewed in the Books app on an iPad or a PDF viewer. One good free option is PDF Reader & Annotator app by Xodo Technologies Inc. that can be used on any platform (https://www.xodo.com/). If viewing in Xodo on a laptop, it may work best in older viewer: https://www.xodo.com/app-old/#/pdf. See this blog post for new info about Xodo: https://omazingkidsllc.com/2021/11/06/free-xodo-pdf-reader-app/

This PDF is NOT formatted to be printed. Those who have purchased this product can access an alternative multipage printable version by using the link at the bottom of the PDF. The same terms of use apply to that document.

The School Year of Core-Bilingüe (SYOC-B) is the Spanish adaptation of the English School-Year of Core ( SYOC), a series of resources for teaching core vocabulary words to children who use AAC. SYOC was conceptualized and created by AAC Specialist and SLP Michaela Sullivan, along with two SFSU pre-professional SLP students, Beth Lytle and Alisa Lego, and other volunteers. Like its English counterpart, SYOC-B offers ideas, resources, and materials for teaching high-frequency Spanish words to children who use AAC ( Soto & Cooper, 2021).

Since most bilingual children who use AAC are being educated by monolingual or English-dominant professionals, the instructions to use SYOC-B are presented in English, while models and materials are in Spanish. The words presented by month and accompanying materials to teach the target words are below. Activity sheets for each core word, in Spanish only, to share with Spanish-dominant caregivers and professionals are available in this Padlet.

The following activities are meant to be suggestions. You do not need to use all activity sheets. Use the resources that are most applicable to your objectives. For more information on the key AAC strategy of each month, please reference SYOC materials.

Abstract

Purpose: Ensuring equitable access to augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) intervention services for children with complex communication needs (CCN) is crucial. Evidence suggests that racial disparities exist in access to communication interventions, disadvantaging Black children. However, no research has investigated specifically the evidence for racial disparities in AAC services for children with developmental disabilities and CCN.

Method: The current study applied post hoc data analysis methods within a preexisting, open-access data set to explore preliminary evidence of racial disparities in AAC intervention. Amount of AAC intervention was compared for Black versus white 1 preschool students at study initiation ( M age = 3;8 [years;months]) and 2 years later at study completion ( M age = 5;10).

Results: Black preschool students were reported to receive significantly less AAC intervention per week as compared to their white peers, both at study initiation and 2 years later. By study end, 75% of the Black children were receiving less than 60 min of AAC intervention per week, an inadequate amount to achieve meaningful gains given their significant disabilities.

Conclusions: It is unclear what mechanisms may contribute to the observed disparities; however, it is critical that concrete steps are taken by individual speech-language pathologists, school districts, preservice preparation programs, and researchers to identify inequities in AAC services and take actions to rectify them. Future research is essential to investigate the potential factors contributing to inequalities and determine effective interventions to address them.

Bienvenido 2023, comenzamos este año con nuevas ideas y proyectos para seguir apoyando a nuestra comunidad hispano hablante a aprender cada día más y compartir experiencias en el campo de la CAA. Sabemos que en muchos de nuestros países es un área nueva y poco explorada por los profesionales y poco conocida por las familias. Por esto este espacio en PraacticalAAC es tan importante para poder compartir información y vivencias que animen a quienes recién comienzan, que actualice los conocimientos de quienes ya están en el campo de la CAA y que nos permita estrechar los lazos y crear redes de apoyo entre profesionales, familias y usuarios que ya estamos unidos por el idioma.

What is Culturally Responsive AAC?

Speech-language pathologists have identified the provision of services to children with complex communication needs from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds as one of their greatest professional challenges (Light & McNaughton, 2012). In the U.S., many clients in need of AAC services come from culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) backgrounds. Appropriate AAC service delivery to clients from CLD backgrounds requires not only appropriate technologies but also research-based evidence on the efficacy of intervention approaches (Soto, 2018). It is impossible for a clinician or a teacher to know the languages and cultures of all the clients they serve. But it is possible to create a 'climate' where the child is viewed as a whole; where different languages and cultural practices are included and legitimized; where there are materials not only in different modalities but in different languages; and where clients and families feel proud of and build on their home language.

Culturally Responsive AAC Resources

There is an increasing number of online resources available for culturally and linguistically responsive assessments, interventions, and resources for professionals and families of children with complex communication needs. Below is a small curated list of some of the resources that are available.
