Join Free →Programming with Proloquo2Go As of July 2022, there are more than 2 million people in the United States using Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) methods. Proloquo2Go is the most common app as an AAC method. Despite this, there are very few assessments/programming resources for ABA providers.This can make it difficult to promote growth for your client while staying within your scope of competence. As our field continues to evolve, multidisciplinary collaboration has become more important than ever. This case study will focus on overcoming the challenges of the lack of assessments for proloquo2go by showing the participants how to identify socially significant goals that also align with the progression of using AAC methods in an innovative way, implementing those goals and collaborating with stakeholders to ensure generalization. Algorithmic Assessment: Using a Coding Curriculum to Assess Social and Communication Skills This presentation will be catered to BCBA's looking to find alternative ways to assess social and communication skills for learners with IDD. This presentation will highlight the growing use of robots for teaching social skills and introduce methods for integrating technology, such as robots and coding, into social communication assessments. Three main objectives will guide the presentation: (1) to examine the methods of using coding-based curriculum to assist in social communication assessment for individuals with IDD, (2) to evaluate the accessibility of incorporating coding activities into existing assessment protocols, and (3) to examine ideas on how to increase communication opportunities within assessment and sessions.
