shared by Nicole Lakusta on 19 Mar 11 - No Cached
  • The proliferation of inexpensive mobile technology is dramatically changing the landscape for individuals with complex communication needs (CCN)
  • AAC grew from the most basic desire to help individuals with CCN express themselves to the people around them.
  • Eventually the personal computer (PC) and standard operating systems became another viable option for AAC technologies.

  • Mobile touchscreen devices cost much less, are readily available, and there is clearly a “cool” factor walking or rolling down the street, mobile device in hand reading, communicating, or surfing for a Starbucks.
  • There is limited evidence that demonstrates the efficacy of mobile technologies and AAC Apps on the functional communication and quality of life of people with CCN. Who uses mobile devices? Which ones? For what purposes? Where? Why? How often? How does the availability of low-cost, highly portable, multi-use devices change the traditional AAC intervention process? What clinical and technical supports need to be in place; who needs to be involved; what, if any, standards are needed; and how does all this impact clinicians, end users and AAC manufacturers? Finally, what design specifications should be incorporated in Apps for people with CCN whose communication needs are poorly meet by current AAC technology and applications?
  • Mobile devices with communication Apps may be very appealing to individuals with CCN and their families for several reasons.
  • “Normalization” of tablets or other mobile devices has taken the mystique out of AAC.
  • people with CCN are becoming more active consumers
  • access remains unresolved for individuals with motor and sensory impairments who cannot use touch screen interfaces.
  • People with CCN are a diverse group.
  • Mobile technologies and communication Apps may: • Meet most of an individual’s communication needs, serving as the person’s primary communication system; • Meet some of an individual’s communication needs, serving as one of several communication tools. For example, an iPhone is used as a backup system when the person’s SGD is unavailable or when going out with friends to a movie; • Be used primarily for training, helping to develop skills related to effective communication. For example language or literacy Apps; • Not directly address an individual’s communication needs, but the individual or family has a mobile device (iPad, for example) and is using it for purposes unrelated to communication. [Note: this can foster interactions with peers, affecting communication opportunities in positive ways]; or • Not be an option because the individual is unable to access the device, is unable to afford it, or does not wish to use it.

    Being an international student in Malaysia, remember a few vital things. It is alright to be nervous when you're abroad for higher studies. People get the jitters even while applying to universities in their homeland. Mingling with new people, trying different things, and forming a new pack-everything initially blends into a spine-tingling, throat-parching moment of apprehension.

    "People do NOT remember 10% of what they read, 20% of what they see, 30% of what they hear, etc. That information, and similar pronouncements are fraudulent. Moreover, general statements on the effectiveness of learning methods are not credible---learning results depend on too many variables to enable such precision. Unfortunately, this bogus information has been floating around our field for decades, crafted by many different authors and presented in many different configurations, including bastardizations of Dale's Cone."

    Sometimes there are cases when it is better to address such services. That's why they are popular.

    I agree. Honestly speaking, I've never been good at writing. So, for such people like me writing services are helpful. I haven't used many of them, but I know that one from https://writinguniverse.com/free-essay-examples/internet/ is good. I used these guys when I was a student. I had to combine study and work, and sometimes I lack time for writing. But it so happened that changed my job and I need to write short essays now and then. So, I'm currently learning how to do this. Life is really unpredictable.

    Hi. To be honest, I was very confused when I realized that I could not cope with my difficult assignment in college and it made me even sadder. It's good that my fellow students told me about this wonderful writing service https://www.australianwritings.com/ . They were really very competent in my question and I also got a good discount on my first essay order. In general, thanks to such services, many students have excellent academic performance and I am glad that they are always ready to help.
