| Description: | This needs assessment research study posed the question, “What do teachers know and need to know about effective implementation of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) iPad apps in inclusive classrooms?” An online survey tool was used to collect participant demographics, AAC knowledge and experience, and teacher thoughts or concerns related to AAC implementation. Teacher knowledge varied but about half of teachers who had taught a student who used AAC felt they knew the basics for using and supporting AAC. Most teachers were interested in receiving training if they knew they would have a student using AAC in their class, especially for improving their own efficiency with the device and incorporating the device in the classroom in a universal way. Prioritized recommendations included training, effective collaboration, individualized teacher support, and increased access to iPad communication apps. |
