Course Synopsis
LAMP is an augmentative alternative communication (AAC) approach designed to give individuals who are nonverbal a method of independently and spontaneously expressing themselves through a speech generating device. This course will cover the components of LAMP: readiness to learn, engaging the learner through joint engagement, and learning language through a unique and consistent motor plan paired with an auditory signal and a natural consequence. Discussion will include how this approach addresses the core language deficits of autism, device features that are beneficial to teaching language, and how to use those features to implement LAMP components. Videos will be used to illustrate the treatment components. The language structure of the LAMP Words for Life language system and use of features to support language learning will be explored using iPads with the LAMP Words for Life App.

4.Discuss implementation strategies for teaching children with ASD to use AAC.
5.Discuss strategies for analyzing the efficacy of communication treatment.
6.Identify how to modify the student's current AAC system and use device features to support language learning
7.Analyze the current expressive language level of an AAC user and give suggestions as to the next step for expanding language and vocabulary
8.Describe how to provide access to vocabulary across settings and activities to promote readiness to learn and generalization
9.Give examples of appropriate levels of prompting and modeling to develop independent communication
