What are the learning characteristics of students with ASD?
The learning characteristics of a student with ASD may include... -strengths and needs -motivations and interests -structure, routine, and predictability -responsiveness to visual support

Learning styles can vary from student to student. It is imperative that the learning styles and characteristics of each learner be taken into account when programming for any student, including those studens with ASD. In our experience, our group has found the visual supports to be extremely important when programming for students with ASD. Sociol stories, task analysis charts, and other visuals are examples of these visual strategies. Tools such as boardmaker makes these tasks very easy.

Describe two general instruction strategies.
