General description Augmentative and Alternative Communication systems (AAC systems) is an optional subject aimed to endow the future ordinary education teacher with a toolbox kit of augmentative and alternative communication strategies. The ultimate goal of AAC strategies is to facilitate access to communication, and to facilitate access to the ordinary or adapted curriculum for those disabled students with educational special needs with severe speech impairments who produce a limited amount of speech or lack it. The use of AAC systems based either in objects, pictograms, Blissymbolics, PIC, orthography or manual signs, together with the use of low and high assistive technology options, alternative access and special communication and writing programs are the basic tools for students with disabilities to learn and participate at school.
