Special Learning Uses Tech for Special Ed
Children and adults with disorders such as Autism have unique educational needs. While some companies have created and applied a great deal of technological innovation in education, there is much less innovation applied to the education of students with special needs. Special Learning is a startup that looks to rectify this by providing mobile apps and educational resources for the special needs community. In its designers’ words, it is a resource and education portal for parents, providers and educators for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other developmental disabilities worldwide. One of the most effective methods in treating behavioral disorders or reaching people with special needs is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy. Special Learning uses technology to utilize this method while providing information, tools and resources for anyone who works with people suffering from Autism or other developmental disabilities.
Special Learning offers a variety of resources including informative articles, videos, expert blogs, and an Autism screening checklist. The website features basic tech support so that anyone can access it from any device with an Internet connection. It provides downloadable tools that help users implement Applied Behavior Analysis ABA teaching methods successfully. These include resources for data collection, behavioral reinforcement, and “in-the-moment” teaching that you can use on your computer at home or wherever you are on a tablet or smartphone.
With Special Learning’s downloadable tools, users can utilize training from a variety of educational styles, tailoring a treatment program to a student’s individual needs without spending the money such treatment would typically require. You can simply browse the website’s extensive library, choose the applicable resources, download them and print them off if you wish. When you want professional help, Special Learning offers a Virtual Consulting, Assessment and Therapy (V-CAT) Program. This provides you with more guidance and support to help you and your child in his or her education. It also offers individuals with special needs and their caretakers an online community that can help prepare them for the outside world.
Making important information and resources accessible, even allowing users to access it all when they require computer support, is a key aspect of Special Learning’s service. For many, such resources have been of extremely limited availability until recent times. Now, users have the ability to learn how to better educate and interact socially with the special needs individuals they care for on a regular basis. Whether increasing social awareness, learning school subjects more effectively, or improving behavior, Special Learning can be an important tool for those with Autism and other disorders as well as those who care for them.
