| Description | | Description:
Language Acquisition through
Motor Planning (LAMP) is a therapeutic approach based on
neurological and motor learning principles. The goal is to give individuals who
are nonverbal or have limited verbal abilities a method of independently and
spontaneously expressing themselves in any setting.
LAMP
was developed out of the clinical practices of John Halloran, MS, CCC-SLP,
Cindy Halloran, OTR/L, and Mia Emerson, MS, CCC-SLP. In their interactions with
nonverbal individuals with autism, they found that:
Giving individuals access to
core words on a speech-generating device,
Teaching those words in
sensory-rich activities, and
Accessing each word on the
device with a consistent, unique motor pattern with auditory feedback
provided a means for developing independent communication.
This course will cover the components of
LAMP:
Readiness to learn.
Engaging the learner through
joint engagement.
Learning language through a
unique and consistent motor plan paired with an auditory signal and a
natural consequence.
Discussion
will include:
How this approach addresses the
core language deficits of autism.
Device features that are
beneficial to teaching language.
How to use those features to
implement LAMP components.
Videos will be used to
illustrate the treatment components.
