CVI for the TVI: CVI and AAC

In this webinar, Speech-Language Pathologist and TVI candidate Sylvia Mangan explains how to design multidisciplinary, strengths-based AAC systems for students with Cerebral/Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI). You will learn how to use Learning Media Assessment (LMA) results to match communication tools to a student’s primary sensory channel—whether visual, auditory, or tactile—using strategies like partner-assisted scanning and tangible symbols. Ultimately, this presentation offers practical tools to respect student agency, promote multi-sensory communication, and foster meaningful social connection.
