Since We are a nonprofit that wants to help with autism with the use of technology I have been looking for information on technology and autism related article.

According to Buddy Tools:

Diagnosis of autism is on the rise (Newschaffer, Falb & Gurney, 2005). “There has been a true and significant increase in autism in the U.S.” (Yazbak, 107). According to the US Department of Education Annual Reports to Congress, between 1992 and 2001, there was a 1,700% increase in autism in U.S. Schools, compared to a 30% increase in all other disabilities. Public schools are faced with the challenge of providing appropriate educational environments and accommodations to meet the demands of students with autism. Furthermore, mainstream classroom teachers are often unprepared to teach autistic students who are placed in their classes. Enter Virtual Expert Clinics, Inc.: AutismPro®, their latest product, brings autism education into the 21st century through effective use of technology.
