Now You’re Talking: Learning the UNIDAD Language System

Date/Location:

February 9, 2022

Description:

When speech-language pathologists have bilingual learners who use AAC on their caseloads, it is challenging to know what to teach and in which language intervention should occur.  This seminar will offer information about normal language development for monolingual Spanish language learners and bilingual Spanish-English language learners. Our guest speakers will teach participants to use and teach the UNIDAD® software through direct instruction, hands-on practice and small group activities.   Therapeutic activities and implementation strategies will be discussed along with numerous resources that can be accessed within the device, the PASS software and on the Internet to support therapeutic outcomes. 

Speakers:

Daniel Dardiz, MA, CCC-SLP

Maria Rivera, MS, CCC-SLP

Learning Outcomes:

Discuss the concept of an icon family within the UNIDAD® software.

List the five patterns of vocabulary access in UNIDAD®.

Identify three tools that can be used to support intervention with UNIDAD®.
