South Africa: Margaret Lilienfeld
When Archbishop Desmond Tutu called South Africa the “Rainbow Nation,” he could have been referring to the country’s multicultural diversity. On October 1st, South Africa kicked off ISAAC’s AAC Awareness month with an event involving Communication Pathology students and primary school students. The future Communication Pathology teachers used video and a PowerPoint presentation of a young adult who uses AAC. The primary school learners were introduced to finger spelling and practiced designing a picture symbol communication board.
