Assistive Technology for Autism Spectrum Disorders

Posted by adaptivetechsolutions on July 22nd, 2016


Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) can benefit from the use of Assistive Technology (AT). Through the use of AT cheap air max shoes , the user can become less dependent on caregivers for prompts. This fosters greater independence and success.


Visual Schedules


Although "paper" schedules are beneficial, many individuals will perform


better when there is also a paired voice prompt. Use simple communication buttons, such as the Talk About! to create" talking" visual schedules. Velcro pictures or objects to each button and place the buttons in the order in which tasks should be completed. Velcro the buttons to a wall cheap nike air max , table, or other surface.
If you need a portable, inexpensive voice output visual schedule cheap air max , Velcro the Talk About! buttons to a Talk n Tote Board.


Sample "talking" visual schedule (place pictures on buttons and record a message on each button):


Morning arrival: "I will put my lunchbox in my cubby."


Morning free time: "I will play with blocks."


Morning activity: "I will set on the red carpet for reading time."


Center Based Tasks


Use communication buttons to record the directions for each center's activity. If the task is a simple one, you could record the instructions on one button. If the task is more complicated (multi-step) considering recording each step of the directions on a Little Step-by-Step. Each time the button is pressed, the next step will be spoken out loud for the user. Or a series of individual communication buttons could be used. Use Time Trackers at each center to provide visual cues for time remaining.


Melt Down Redirection


Individuals with ASD often find it difficult to transition from one activity to another. Using visual schedules is helpful in these transitions. But a visual cue before a task is coming to an end allows these individuals time to "gear up" for a change. Using a visual timer such as the Time Tracker gives individuals with ASD cues about how much time is remaining for a task and when time is coming to an end for an activity. This makes for a smoother transition.
