Description

Most robust AAC language systems represent language through single-meaning pictures and alphabet-based strategies, such as spelling, word prediction, and printed words. Minspeak systems are unique in that they offer a third method of representing language known as semantic compaction.
 
This webinar will explore the components of Minspeak systems that lead to successful communication including the semantic organization into word families, the predictable architecture of vocabulary storage, and the design that leads to motor automaticity.
 
Join us as we explore the marvels and magic of Minspeak systems and learn how the design of Minspeak programs and accompanying tools facilitate language learning and use.

Learning Outcomes

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Explain how vocabulary is organized in a Minspeak system.
  • Describe how vocabulary is accessed through predictable symbol sequences.
  • Discuss how the design of Minspeak systems promotes motor automaticity.
