Description

Creating goals and measuring progress for individuals who use AAC can be a challenging process. This course will provide the participants with resources, tools, and framework so they have the skills to write goals and objectives on their own.

Participants will learn through the two presented case studies: an Accent 1000 device user with Unity vocabulary and a NovaChat 8 device user with WordPower vocabulary. As we explore the goals for these clients, participants will engage in their own goal writing in order to learn about the four areas of communicative competence, the goal attainment scale, and SMART terminology.

Learning Outcomes

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

  • Identify the three important components used in the provided AAC Goal Framework.
  • List the four areas of communicative competence for AAC use.
  • Identify resources to support writing goals and monitoring progress.
  • Write one goal, with at least 2 objectives, using the framework provided.
  • Describe elements that make a “SMART” goal.
