Communication is the essence of human interaction and learning.
Effective communication is when the intent and meaning of one individual is understood
by another person. This includes communicating for the purposes of:
-
Expressing needs and wants
-
Social closeness
-
Exchanging information
-
Social etiquette
-
Expressing inner thoughts
Many of us communicate verbally, through speech, but this is not an effective
mode of communication for some, and that is where
AAC comes in!
