Why are we here?• We all have iPads
• To talk about moving beyond choice-making and requesting with difficult-to-motivate, nonverbal students

Why are we here?• Because we can pave the way for
“Requesters” to learn additional functions of communication using AAC with the essential teaching strategies of modeling and demonstration

Why are we here?• Because we want you to
consider that even “symbol-blind” individuals can be taught to use visually-based communication

From an AT Specialist: A tale of AAC Failure
• Parent bought an iPad
• AT Specialist provided an iPad
But, “It’s not working”
“He’s not using it”
• The iPad is not the best communication tool for every student
• That being said, exposure to visually supported communication may lay the foundation for future skills

Much of the info on teaching AAC focuses on teaching non-oral individuals with
INTACT SOCIAL SYSTEMS
• More info needed on how exactly to teach AAC to learners with social de!cits
• Children with autism often have to be taught to take pleasure in social engagement
Difficult-to-Motivate Students

Autism: Communication Options Using the iPadMarch 1, 2013

An AAC system should...• Increase participation: classroom, work,
community, home
• Address goals: IEP, work, personal
• Support efficient and interactive communication
• Provide the user with meaningful language
• Support language and literacy learning
• Be age-respectful
• Provide a positive support to behavior

Getting Communication Going
In autism we know we can teach:
Cause-and-Effect Requesting
Cause-and-Effect Rejecting
![Page 15: CSHA 2013 AAC, the iPad and Autism: Moving Beyond Choice-Making (Meier, Kappe) 3.8.13](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052522/55495cd2b4c905f74e8b55d1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

• Builds “buy-in”
• Adds pay-off to the effort of communicating
START with One-word/One-button Requesting for items, actions or recurrence (“more”)
![Page 16: CSHA 2013 AAC, the iPad and Autism: Moving Beyond Choice-Making (Meier, Kappe) 3.8.13](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052522/55495cd2b4c905f74e8b55d1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

• BUT DON’T STOP HERE!
• It’s very easy to get stuck on requesting ...but additional functions ARE possible!

• It is rare for difficult-to-motivate students to naturally move out of the requesting function
• Modeling and Augmented Input are KEY to the process of expanding communicative functions

In ASD, modeling is essential to:
First) Demonstrate the use and power of additional functions of communication: attention directing, commenting, sharing opinions, greeting
Then) We can worry about teaching the vocabulary/symbol location for these functions - after they know WHY

Let’s Wrap UpWe have talked about:
• Paving the way for lower functioning students to move beyond choice-making and requesting with the essential teaching strategies of modeling and demonstration
• Using motor planning so that even “symbol-blind” individuals can use a variety of vocabulary in visually-based, multi-page communication systems
• Our favorite, very robust communication app that out of the box makes it easy to teach additional functions, to use motor planning to our advantage and to generate multi-word utterances - TouchChat HD
