低科技注音溝通板對提升腦性麻痺學生溝通能力之實務分享

A Practical Teaching Report on Using a Low-Tech Zhuyin Communication Board to Enhance the Communication Abilities of a Student with Cerebral Palsy

本教學實務分享針對一位腦性麻痺肢體且功能受限的高中生，探討如何在高科技輔具效果不佳的情況下，透過自製低科技注音溝通板提升其溝通能力。由於學生多次嘗試高科技輔具未果，本分享採用手翻注音卡溝通板，並結合個別化教學策略來激發溝通動機。結果顯示，學生在注音符號辨識和拼音能力上取得了顯著進步，儘管在雙韻符和聲調辨識上仍存在挑戰。為進一步優化效果，建議改進翻頁索引系統並加強家長與技術專家的合作，尤其在資源有限的情況下，提供簡易可行的替代方案，促進學生的學習與社會融合。本分享希望為有相似需求的學生提供提升社會互動與自主溝通能力的參考。

This practical teaching report focuses on a high school student with cerebral palsy, whose physical function hindered effective communication using high-tech assistive devices. After several unsuccessful attempts, a low-tech Traditional Mandarin Zhuyin (a type of phonetic notation system) communication board was developed to enhance the student’s Mandarin Chinese communication abilities. The board used flip-through Zhuyin cards and was combined with individualized instructional strategies to stimulate communication motivation. The results showed significant improvements in the student’s recognition and use of Zhuyin symbols and phonetics, although challenges remained in recognizing diphthongs and tones. To further optimize the outcome, it is recommended to improve the indexing system of the communication board and to strengthen collaboration between parents and technical experts. Especially in resource-limited situations, providing simple and feasible alternatives can promote the student’s learning and social integration. This report aims to offer a reference for enhancing social interaction and independent communication for native Mandarin speaker students with similar needs.
