Abstract Details

2012, Bachelor of Science (BS), Ohio University, Hearing, Speech and Language Science.
The use of graphic symbols for communicative purposes is a common form of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) for children with complex communication needs. However, some of the symbols, which represent important early concepts, are difficult for children to recognize. The study implemented a program using video and play activities paired with a direct instruction approach to teach 10 graphic symbols of important early concepts to children with complex communication needs. A single subject multiple baseline across subjects research design was used. Results indicated that program was effective in teaching the target concepts.
