AAC-RERC Themes

 

In developing our research and development programs, we conducted a number of activities that engaged different constituencies to assist in identifying needs and setting future directions. To address the unmet needs identified by AAC stakeholders, six theme areas emerged.

  • Enhancing Access for Users with Cognitive/Linguistic Limitations
  • Supporting the Societal Roles of People Who Use AAC
  • AAC Simulation and Performance
  • Usability, Learnability, and Acceptance of AAC Technology
  • Connecting AAC Technology More Seamlessly to the World
  • New Interface Technologies for Persons Not Well-Served by Current AAC Systems
     

Each theme is described in its link above, along with the research and development projects that are associated with the theme. Some of the projects are connected to multiple themes.
