Empower through Visual Strengths — VAST-Autism: A Pioneering Approach to Speech Therapy.
Breaking through barriers, VAST-Autism revolutionizes spoken language support for autism and apraxia by fusing evidence-based best practices, advanced technology, and an understanding of individual strengths. Harnessing video modeling, written cues, and auditory prompts, VAST-Autism guides users to verbal expression.
At its core, the app ingeniously combines the potency of video modeling with the clarity of written words and auditory cues, offering users a roadmap to acquire meaningful words, phrases, and sentences — unlocking their ability to express verbally.
JOIN FAMILIES & THERAPISTS WHO:
• Adopt the powerful blend of video modeling, written words, and auditory cues.
• Progress from syllables to sentences with a structured hierarchy.
• Use the mirror feature to improve oral motor sequencing and self-monitoring.
• Benefit from an approach validated by speech-language pathologists worldwide.
[ A FOCUS ON VISUAL STRENGTHS ]
• For those with potent visual skills, VAST-Autism becomes an indispensable tool. Using visual aids not just as a crutch, but as a foundation, leverages this strength to foster speech development.
[ PROGRESSIVE SPEECH ACQUISITION ]
• Videos span a range from syllable repetition to full sentences. Ensure clarity and prevent misconceptions with written word cues, eliminating misunderstandings like confusing a frog jumping for "go."
[ EVIDENCE-BASED VIDEO MODELING ]
• Research confirms that video modeling is not just rapid but also highly effective in instilling new behaviors and ensuring their generalization and maintenance. With VAST-Autism, users get a method that's scientifically backed.
[ LITERACY & COMMUNICATION ]
• Beyond just speech, VAST-Autism recognizes the importance of reading and spelling. By facilitating literacy, it amplifies functional communication, ensuring that users don't just speak, but also understand and engage.
[ REFLECTIVE PRACTICE ]
• The unique mirror function aids in providing visual feedback, which is pivotal in conditions like developmental apraxia of speech. This self-monitoring tool enhances muscle coordination and sequence learning for speech.
[ COMMUNITY & RESEARCH ]
• This groundbreaking tool is the result of extensive collaboration and research. Initial studies reveal the app's efficacy, with many previously non-speaking individuals beginning word approximations after just a few short weeks.
[ COMMITTED TO GROWTH ]
• As the "Core" app, VAST-Autism is just the beginning. With plans for expansion and ongoing research, it's a dynamic toolset to revolutionize speech therapy for autism and apraxia.
