The Autism Language Program at Boston Children’s Hospital has identified seven pragmatic functions for which all competent communicators use language, including:
- requesting;
- protesting;
- commenting/labeling;
- directives;
- questions;
- transitions; and,
- social pragmatics.
This training will illustrate methods used to promote communication in learners with autism for purposes beyond simple requesting, focusing on the iPad as a comprehensive learning tool.
iPad tips and tricks will be shown, as well as various apps and strategies to support language learning and communication. Jennifer Abramson M.S. CCC-SLP from the Autism Language Program will present this information and answer questions.
When: 6:30 - 8:30pm Thursday, May 21 2015
Where: The Charles River Center
59 East Militia Heights Road, Needham, MA
