Thank you

Hi could I please get the name of the research article that shows core boards promote spoken language rather than replace it? Thanks!

[@SpeechinaSec]

Hi Dawn, check out this article here “The Impact of Augmentative and Alternative Communication Intervention on the Speech Production of Individuals With Developmental Disabilities: A Research Review” :) Thanks

what did you use to make your back board...the hard black base?

[@SpeechinaSec]

Hi Susan, I like to use Corflute, as it is much more durable than cardboard. Old real estate signs are also great to use for the hard back. Hope that’s helpful :)

Hello, I am a speech and language pathologist from Turkey. I love your videos and I’d love to voice them in my native language (with crediting you, ofc!) I tried to contact you but couldn’t find your contact adresses. I hope you will return to me soon, Ezgi.
