To enhance the quality of communication training for students with disabilities, preservice special education teacher training programs should strengthen their training in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) instruction, particularly in teachers’ability to translate theoretical knowledge into practice. This study aimed to explore how a flipped classroom approach can promote preservice special education teachers’knowledge and practical skills in AAC, emphasizing the integration of theory and practice to improve their preparedness for AAC instruction. A descriptive research design was adopted. Participants were students enrolled in a semester-long communication training course that incorporated a flipped classroom model, co-teaching with industry experts, and AAC case-based intervention projects. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected to evaluate the effectiveness of the current curriculum design. The findings revealed three main outcomes: (1) the flipped classroom approach enhanced participants’knowledge, skills, and attitudes toward AAC services; (2) it supported the generalization of AAC instructional practices to real-world teaching contexts; and (3) participants expressed high levels of satisfaction with the flipped classroom approach. |
