Awe and Wonder Podcast Series 5: AAC & AT - Vision

Many students who need AAC to communicate may be blind or low-vision learners. What considerations do teams need to know about when determining AT and AAC for these students? Who is involved in making these decisions? Join Brenda and Sarah as they talk with therapists, families, and experts who share their experiences that create awe and wonder in unique ways. Participants will hear first-hand accounts from people supporting students with complex needs and from AAC users themselves. We can’t know where we’re going unless we know where we come from. Assistive Technology (AT), Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC), and vision will be discussed, but as always, human connection is highlighted throughout part 5 of this engaging series.
