Technology-Based Behavioural and Developmental Interventions
We use the term 'Technology-Based Behavioural and Developmental Interventions' to describe different forms of assistive and augmentative technology which are used to deliver behavioural and developmental interventions for people on the autism spectrum.
Although technology is used to deliver these interventions, the intention of these interventions is to change or develop the recipient of the intervention. For example, video modelling is used to show someone on the autism spectrum how to behave under certain circumstances.
Specific interventions include
- Apps (Computer Applications)
- Video Modelling
- Visual Schedules
