Enhancing Comprehension

on

 Enhancing Comprehension:

Information can be communicated more effectively using visual aids like pictures, symbols, and charts than just verbal communication alone (Skalbeck, 2021). They facilitate comprehension and lessen confusion for people with mental disabilities by making concepts, instructions, and routines easier to understand. Individuals suffering from autism and are nonverbal can communicate more easily with Picture Exchange Communication System thanks to visual symbols (Ferreira et al., 2017). To communicate their wants, desires, and emotions, they can exchange pictures. Visual timetables and visual schedules help people with autism understand and anticipate what will happen next by using images or icons to represent daily routines or activities (Cohen, 2014).

Nice approach to the Blog. However I would've loved to see a few more entries, as well as citations in APA format. Also there is a lot of information- maybe should be just a little less wordy and include some more visuals.

Hii, the topic is versy specific as it shoukd be. The point I would like to highlight is that every individual with mental disability is not same, so you cannot mention that it would be easier for every person with a disability to remember things easily or that would helo them to do daily activities without any hinder. overall the blogs content is accurate but can provide a more comprehensive perspective on the topic.
