11:00am Considerations in Adding Non-Robust AAC Tools as Secondary Systems
There are a variety of AAC Tools that are very small. They are not, nor claim to be, robust vocabulary systems. These tools can possibly play a secondary role. This session reviews the features and usage of this category of AAC tools; it does NOT promote that these systems are a person’s primary system. CEUS available. Registration requested.
