Abstract

Abstract On February 5, 2022, the field of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) lost a giant when Dr. David “Dave” Beukelman passed away. As the readership of this journal is aware, Dave was one of the principal founders of the AAC field and devoted his career to providing a voice to those without one. Before AAC became a field, people who could not talk were invisible or seldom noticed, unless they were in the way. For more than 40 years, he was a catalyst for change in AAC clinical practice, research, dissemination, teaching, and public policy development. This tribute aims to honor Dave’s lifelong mission of serving others by sharing some of his most timeless and valued lessons. Each lesson begins with one of Dave’s most enduring quotes that is then followed by a brief synopsis of the lesson Dave hoped to convey.

AAC领域的经验教训:向大卫·贝克曼博士致敬

摘要:2022年2月5日，辅助与替代通信(AAC)领域失去了一位巨人，大卫·“戴夫”·Beukelman博士去世了。正如本杂志的读者所知，戴夫是AAC领域的主要创始人之一，他的职业生涯致力于为那些没有发言权的人提供发言权。在AAC成为一个领域之前，不会说话的人是隐形的，或者很少被注意到，除非他们挡道。40多年来，他一直是AAC临床实践、研究、传播、教学和公共政策发展变革的催化剂。这篇颂词旨在通过分享他最永恒和最宝贵的经验来纪念戴夫为他人服务的终身使命。每节课都以戴夫最经久不衰的名言之一开始，然后是戴夫希望传达的课程的简短摘要。

期刊介绍： As the official journal of the International Society for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (ISAAC), Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) publishes scientific articles related to the field of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) that report research concerning assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, and education of people who use or have the potential to use AAC systems; or that discuss theory, technology, and systems development relevant to AAC. The broad range of topic included in the Journal reflects the development of this field internationally. Manuscripts submitted to AAC should fall within one of the following categories, AND MUST COMPLY with associated page maximums listed on page 3 of the Manuscript Preparation Guide. Research articles (full peer review), These manuscripts report the results of original empirical research, including studies using qualitative and quantitative methodologies, with both group and single-case experimental research designs (e.g, Binger et al., 2008; Petroi et al., 2014). Technical, research, and intervention notes (full peer review): These are brief manuscripts that address methodological, statistical, technical, or clinical issues or innovations that are of relevance to the AAC community and are designed to bring the research community’s attention to areas that have been minimally or poorly researched in the past (e.g., research note: Thunberg et al., 2016; intervention notes: Laubscher et al., 2019).
