Skills are needed to interact with individuals who communicate non-verbally? What educational content can contribute to enhancing competencies in the field of supported communication? How can special education training be changed and improved? These questions are explored in Angelika Rothmayr's book. The author combines her own practical experiences with research findings. The silence of individuals with profound disabilities and their dependence on their respective educators are often life-defining. The teaching and application of supported communication must not rely on whether a person labeled as disabled is fortunate enough to encounter a particularly empathetic caregiver. Supported communication must be teachable and learnable. Angelika Rothmayr's comprehensive book illustrates what content is necessary for this.
