Article Synopsis
- The pilot study focused on enhancing milieu teaching for children with Down Syndrome by using a hybrid telepractice model, involving both in-person and online sessions led by a speech-language pathologist (SLP).
- Three caregivers of children aged 22-40 months were trained in four specific EMT strategies along with augmentative communication methods, with the goal of improving their teaching effectiveness and children's communication skills.
- Results indicated significant improvements in caregivers' use of EMT strategies and positive trends in children's symbolic communication and vocabulary after the training, suggesting the effectiveness of this service delivery model.
