Event Description:

This professional learning opportunity is for Oakland County Public School and PSA Educators only.

Research supports the use of partner-augmented input (PAI), also known as aided language input, as an intervention strategy for individuals who use AAC. How do we move from knowing this is good practice to putting it into practice across the day? This beginner-level, full-day program and two follow-up evening sessions with Dr. Jill Senner and Matthew Baud, will take educational staff through portions of steps one through five of an evidence-based, 8-step instructional model for teaching Partner-Augmented Input, (Aided Language Input). Educators will participate in interactive, hands-on training designed for learning and improving AAC modeling skills.

Please note: Educators are expected to have access to a communication board, app, or device for participation in the interactive portions of the program.

This professional learning opportunity will offer substitute reimbursement for attendance on October 19, 2018 and an attendance stipend to Oakland County Public Educators who attend the evening session at Oakland Schools Main Campus on April 11, 2019.
