    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.

  • 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 website contains all the information that is provided for a no-cost public school funded system where families can have curriculum appropriate materials ("even bags of rocks and dirt") delivered to their front door and complete graded Kindergarten through the 12th grade virtually from home. They claim these virtual students will spend about 20-25% of their time working on the computer, while high school students in this program can plan to spend about three hours each day on the computer. This site offers free examples of lesson plans, and lots of information on how this system works.
