Description: This exciting workshop describes nine critical communication skills required by all communicators, independent of their communication needs or modality (e.g. PECS, signing, speech). We distinguish between commun9ication that is spontaneous, responsive or imitative. When people cannot initiate or otherwise calmly use these skills, many serious behavior problems are likely to arise. These skills are broadly divided between those needed by speakers (expressive skills) versus those needed by listeners (receptive skills). Participants will learn effective training strategies for children who speak or sign as well as those using augmentative or alternative systems. During this training, participants will learn . . .

How to define functional communication |

How to identify and evaluate the nine critical communication skills |
|
How to design effective teaching strategies to promote these skills independent of modality |

Description: PECS is a language training package that is used to teach communication skills rapidly to those with limited functional speech. It promotes communication within a social context, without lengthy prerequisite training. Training in PECS begins by teaching a spontaneous request and goes on to teach additional communicative functions such as responding to questions and commenting. An added attraction for preschool children with autism and related disabilities is the high proportion of children who acquire independent speech. Participants will learn how to implement the six phases of PECS, including attributes, through presenter demonstrations, video examples and role-play opportunities. During this training, participants will learn . . .
