Participated in the Recommender Panel at the Tobii Dynavox Power to be You (P2BU) conference today

Posted on by

It was an honor to be invited to participate on a “Recommender Panel” at the Tobii Dynavox Power to be You (P2BU) conference today (10/11/22). Thankful for the power of technology via Zoom to be able to do that remotely. It was cool to hear the other panelists perspectives and experiences in doing AAC evals and supporting AAC implementation in various settings. Although we each had varied experiences we had similar feedback for what we’d like to see in the future.

Common themes in recommendations included making AAC accessible on iPhones and pocket-sized devices, expanding to additional platforms, supporting use in more languages, offering more premade bilingual pagesets, offering premade pagesets with high contrast symbols, making it easier to find resources on their website, streamlining the funding process and communication regarding the status, enhancing access to customer support via instant messaging, FaceTime, etc., more transparency regarding the status of support for their older AAC apps and other products, and more support via their Tobii Dynavox Community Facebook group, etc…

It’s amazing how much AAC has changed over the past 33 years. Can’t wait to see what the future holds 😊

Heads up Okie SLPeeps….. I will be presenting “TherAPPy Tools: iPad Tips for Pediatric SLPs” at the 2017 Oklahoma Speech-Language-Hearing Association Annual Conference on September 15th at the Reed Conference Center in Midwest City.

See the OSHA website for registration info:

I’m almost finished with my presentation slides. Pretty cool to create the whole thing in the Keynote app on my iPad. It was super easy to do and syncs in the cloud across all my devices. Even bought an adapter so I can run the presentation directly from my iPad & a locker stand so I can use one iPad or my iPhone as a camera from above to project app demos from another iPad.

Hope to see y’all in September 😃
