Visual Supports for People with Autism: A Guide for Parents and Professionals, 2nd. Edition

Visual supports—any pictorial, graphic, or scheduling aid—are excellent tools for teaching academic, daily living, and self-help skills to people with autism. This reader-friendly and practical book shows teachers, parents, and service providers how to make low-tech visual supports, and offers strategies for using them to address deficits typical of autism.

New to this edition is a chapter on high-tech options for visual supports (iPads, smartphones, etc.) and how to choose appropriate ones, particular features that are good for people with autism, and more general apps that are helpful too.
