Topics
Assistive technology, Speech communicationCall for Papers
We have based our topic areas on the three aspects of evidence based practice, which constitute improved outcomes for all. These aspects are:
- Best Research Evidence: Papers submitted under this heading are carried out by independent organisations such as education, social or health services and universities. Authors should pay particular attention to describing the methodology and results of the study.
- Clinical and Professional Experience: Papers submitted under this heading may include service development, audit or implementation projects, as well as practice reports. Typically, these papers will be presented by health or education professionals or those working for other organisations for people who use AAC.
- Personal Stories and Preferences: Papers submitted under this heading would include personal experience stories, single case studies and examples of AAC in the wider community.
Papers can be submitted as either a platform presentation or a poster. We particularly welcome contributions from people who use AAC and family members.
This year we are using an online submission program called Ex Ordo – click here to access the system and submit your abstract.
