I have placed a link to a blog post by the blog "Emerging EdTech" at the bottom of this post. The post is has some great information about using IPads with students with learning disabilities, especially in the areas of PDD (Pervasive Developmental Disorder) or Autism/Aspergers. IPads or similar devices can be great tools in the areas of education, learning, and communicating with students who may struggle otherwise. Having resources like this blog post contains is always helpful. I have also placed a link to a 60 Minutes story about using "Apps for Autism". The blog "Free Technology for Teachers" is where I found that link, but I know many parents in our area watched that episode of 60 minutes. Great to watch it again though. Enjoy the resources!
