EP Reach-Out webinar – Understanding the views of children with complex learning and communication needs with Dr Kate Farmer
- This event has passed.
In this webinar, I will tell you about my doctoral research exploring how adults understand the views of children with complex learning and communication needs who are not yet using a formal communication system. I will tell you about my work with one special school and how I took a social constructionist perspective to explore the relationship between child and adult as communication partners when an adult infers meaning and interprets a child’s communicative intent. I will offer some practical suggestions from my research for adults seeking to understand the views of children and young people with complex learning and communication needs.
