Intensive Interaction enables learners with very complex learning needs to learn

how to engage with other people for progressively longer periods in gradually more complex and varied activities. The approach recognises that play is one of the most important learning activities in the lives of children and adults who have severe communication impairments. It is how we learn the skills of being with and communicating with another person.
