Assistive Technology Devices for Students with Autism



Going beyond your everyday devices... computers, SMARTboards, iPods, etc., there are many more technology devices used in our schools on a regular basis. I work in  an EC classroom with children who have been diagnosed with Autism and they require many modifications to their learning assignments. They require the use of many technology devices that help enhance the understanding of their lessons. Not only do children with Autism need technology, they also need visuals. I felt like this website offered ways to communicate with children with Autism, with and without technology. It's a challenging but interesting tasks. Welcome to my world!
