2023 Summer Workshop – Addressing the Needs of Students with Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) and Complex Communication Needs (CCN) in the Classroom Setting.

The Bridge School is excited to announce the AAC-CVI Framework, adapted from work at Penn State University.

The CVI Range Assessment provides a framework to systematically and consistently develop and utilize intervention for a student with CVI. At The Bridge School, these interventions support:

  • increasing students’ opportunities to learn and utilize language that describes what and how we see,
  • increasing students’ access to curriculum and educational environments,
  • supporting development of AAC and AT tools using a student’s individual CVI profile as a guide.

Although outcomes have varied in degree and reflect more than a student’s CVI, overall students with CVI at The Bridge School have benefited from The CVI Range Assessment interventions.
