Autism Teaching Resources

Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder that affects the development of the brain's communication and social skills. There are several autism teaching resources available to help people with autism learn to function and grow, including a variety of visual aids, helpful interfaces, and alternative teaching methods.
  1. The Zac Browser

    • The Zac Browser web browser is specifically designed for children with autism. The Zac Browser helps people with autism learn how to navigate the web by limiting the focus, eliminating adult websites, and presenting a visual selection of choices. The choices include games that encourage the study of special interests, and stimulating videos that help with the development of language and communication skills.

    Visual Aids for Learning

    • The website Visual Aids for Learning offers a variety of pictures for different situations and activities to help people with autism, who often learn best with visual stimuli. Pictures range from school activities, facial expressions, common foods and objects, and the proper behaviors for different occasions.

    Wrong Planet

    • Wrong Planet is an autism and asperger's community on the Internet. Specifically designed for people with autism, parents and professionals, Wrong Planet offers articles and discussion boards that can be helpful for people with autism looking for answers to different problems or seeking companionship. The community offers advice in the message boards and occasionally schedules live meetings, which can foster the development of communication and language skills, as well as provide an opportunity to learn from other people with autism.

    ABA Programs

    • The science of Applied Behavior Analysis, or ABA, is often used as a framework for a behavioral teaching model to instruct and educate people with autism. There are several different ABA programs available (see resources) which use a combination of behavioral analysis techniques, including social stories and visual support to promote socially acceptable behavior.
