  • Kids and animals are a natural combination. Pets are great companions, and they teach the value of responsibility to children. For children with disabilities, this companionship is particularly invaluable, as they may have trouble making friends with kids their own ages because of low self-esteem. Animals give children an opportunity to connect with another living being, which is extremely important to any child's development.

    This article provides another view on the cost effectiveness and the uselfulness that the iPad provides in all classrooms, especially for autistic students. It describes a pilot research study that proved to support integrating the iPad into special education curriculums because of the wide range of uses and tools it provides. One of the main points the researcher argued is that the iPad has multiple uses and can replace the many devices that are apparent in special education programs.
