Ep. 125: Learning About AAC - It Doesn’t Have to be So Hard (+AAC tips)

In this episode, Sarah and Sarie discussed different masking rules in Sarie’s setting (schools) versus Sarah’s Setting (clinic) and the confusion and conflict that has invited for families they see. This conversation isn’t about the hosts’ personal beliefs on masking, but rather the confusing messages regarding mask wearing and that the rules should be consistent between schools and clinics. The cohosts also discuss four problems with AAC education (and how to fix them), and discuss gestalt language learning and AAC. Sarah and Sarie also share their favorite recent reads, with both nonfiction and fiction book recommendations.
