Autism Acceptance Month challenges us to examine how we teach autonomy and privacy to people learning to use AAC. Alyssa Hillary is an Autistic graduate student in neuroscience, where they do AAC-related research. Their perspective on privacy and autonomy was so powerful that it needed its own blog, which they tell about in their own words here.
This blog will help you choose a page set when starting simPODD.
Summer will be here before you know it – which means it’s time to start planning your trip to an AAC camp!
The messages in simPODD are organized in a particular way. Learn how simPODD works!
How did you learn to label your emotional state as “sad” or “tired”? This blog is full of strategies for teaching the spoken words for feelings - especially for AAC users.
Make simPODD personal to your child. This article will help you prioritize what might be customized in your simPODD.
Martine Meijers shares her experience of introducing Proloquo2Go with a child's voice for her son.
In Proloquo2Go 6, we’re implementing one of the oldest and most popular feature requests: adding audio recordings to buttons to replace text to speech. We think the range and customization this feature will allow you to add to the vocabulary will make it a great addition to the app.
In this version of the app, we’ve added extra volume options to Tools. Not only will you be able to adjust the volume on screen, we’ve also added a shout function.
An app like Proloquo2Go depends on symbols that are clear, identifiable, and relevant. This is important in getting an AAC learner engaged and interested in the system. It’s also necessary to provide all of our users with vocabulary that recognizes their daily life.
