輔助溝通系統介入成果評量架構之探究

The Framework of Outcomes Measurement for AAC intervention

近來在國內特殊教育的研究與實務均重視輔助溝通系統的介入，然而輔助溝通系統介入成果的評量仍缺乏完整的評量架構。本文從溝通能力的觀點提出輔助溝通系統介入成果的評量架構。筆者將成果評量分成兩個向度，一是輔助溝通系統學習成果，強調溝通符號和設備操作的學習成果評量；一是輔助溝通系統應用成果，強調應用輔助溝通系統後對使用者溝通互動的改善成果。

Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) has been regarded as one of important issues in special education research and practice in Taiwan. However， there is a lack of framework of outcomes measurement for AAC intervention. This paper proposed a framework based on the concept of communication competence. Two dimensions of framework were described. One was outcomes for AAC learning， which focused on symbol and device learning; another was outcomes for AAC use， which emphasized the effect of using AAC for interaction.
