AAC systems and devices enable users to communicate wants, needs, ideas, and opinions when faced with challenges verbalizing.<\/p>\n<p>While AAC is an invaluable communication option for many, misconceptions still exist surrounding its use and effectiveness. Certain myths about AAC can lead to avoidance of AAC or improper implementation. Dispelling these myths is key to promoting broader acceptance and optimal use.<\/p>\n<p>We will tackle 5 prevalent myths about AAC and present the facts to overcome misinformation. Understanding the reality behind common AAC myths empowers individuals to make informed decisions about AAC and properly utilize it to improve communication and quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>1. AAC es una m\u00e1quina que puede producir voz<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No es verdad. \u00a1Es mucho m\u00e1s que eso! Los dos tipos principales de CAA son la comunicaci\u00f3n sin ayuda y la comunicaci\u00f3n con ayuda. La comunicaci\u00f3n sin ayuda no requiere equipo adicional. Esto incluye se\u00f1alar, expresiones faciales e incluso lenguaje de se\u00f1as. La comunicaci\u00f3n asistida requiere herramientas para apoyar la comunicaci\u00f3n. Las herramientas pueden ser AAC de baja tecnolog\u00eda, como s\u00edmbolos, im\u00e1genes, gr\u00e1ficos de comunicaci\u00f3n y tableros de palabras centrales, y las herramientas pueden ser AAC de alta tecnolog\u00eda, como dispositivos generadores de voz.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Solo los ni\u00f1os que no usan palabras necesitan CAA<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No es verdad. La AAC puede verse como una herramienta de transici\u00f3n para los ni\u00f1os con retrasos en el lenguaje. Los ni\u00f1os peque\u00f1os que usan AAC pasan al lenguaje hablado una vez que est\u00e1n listos. Puede verse como un &#039;complemento&#039; o apoyo, especialmente cuando todav\u00eda est\u00e1n aprendiendo a comprender el idioma.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. AAC evitar\u00e1 que mi hijo use palabras<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No es verdad. \u00a1De hecho, es justo lo contrario! De hecho, las investigaciones muestran que el uso de CAA ayuda a los ni\u00f1os a mejorar su habla expresiva porque a trav\u00e9s de CAA aprenden los beneficios de comunicarse y puede reducir su frustraci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Un ni\u00f1o peque\u00f1o no est\u00e1 listo para la CAA\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Not true. For children with physical disabilities,<a href=\"https:\/\/ucpofcentralaz.org\/es\/services\/therapy-program\/\"> motor disorders<\/a> or learning difficulties, it is best to introduce AAC as young as possible. This often starts with unaided communication such as pointing and then gradually moves onto speech-generating devices depending on their abilities.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. La CAA de alta tecnolog\u00eda es mejor que la CAA de baja tecnolog\u00eda<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>No es verdad. Un tipo de CAA no es mejor que otro. Hay pros y contras de cada m\u00e9todo y depende de las habilidades del ni\u00f1o y de lo que prefiera. Para los ni\u00f1os con dificultades de comunicaci\u00f3n, generalmente se recomienda un enfoque de &quot;comunicaci\u00f3n total&quot;, ya que hace uso de los diferentes modos de habilidades de comunicaci\u00f3n que un ni\u00f1o ya tiene. Por ejemplo, un ni\u00f1o puede decir &quot;hola&quot; a un amigo agitando una mano, se\u00f1alar una tarjeta de identificaci\u00f3n cuando el maestro est\u00e1 tomando asistencia y pedir un bocadillo usando un tablero de palabras b\u00e1sicas.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Augmentative and Alternative Communication <a href=\"https:\/\/ucpofcentralaz.org\/es\/aac\/\">(AAC)<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>is a term that encompasses communication methods used to supplement or support speech for individuals with impairments in the production or comprehension of spoken or written language. AAC is utilized by individuals with a wide range of speech and language impairments, including cerebral palsy, intellectual impairment and autism. AAC can be a permanent addition to a person&#8217;s communication or a temporary aid with the options of low tech and high tech.\u00a0\u00a0Our goal is to enable an accurate understanding of what AAC is, who it can help, and how to approach it effectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Referencia: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdchk.org\/parent-tips\/five-common-myths-about-aac\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.cdchk.org\/parent-tips\/five-common-myths-about-aac\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 Common Myths about Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) &nbsp; Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) refers to various methods that supplement or support oral speech for individuals with speech impairments.
