October is AAC Awareness Month and I am thrilled to have Angela Moorad, SLP, on the show today. We are going to be talking really specifically about how to use a split screen or a split view with AAC and another app or program, like YouTube or a book. Angela is going to show you step by step and what to do and how you can use these to enhance the communication of your child or students!

Angela Moorad, MS, CCC-SLP has 35 years of experience in AAC across the lifespan with a primary focus on ages birth to 21 years. She is the founder of OMazing Kids AAC Consulting, has done extensive beta testing and feedback for therapeutic, educational and AAC apps across the iOS, Android, Amazon Fire, Chromebook, Windows and Web-Based platforms, is active on social media and in numerous AAC/AT related Facebook groups, and is the author of several in-depth AAC feature matching resources (including info about AAC features to support Gestalt Language Processors) + several other AAC related resources.
