  • Welcome to the iPad blog at Autism Epicenter. This blog is for exclusive discussion of the many apps, and devices, that can help children with ASD and other developmental disabilities. Of course, the iPad isn't the only device in this category. Many children and adults with autism can also benefit from using the iPhone and iPod Touch. In fact, those devices are more portable than the iPad and may be more practical to lug around.

    All blog posts written here are by an autism Dad who has years of experience in the technology field and a degree in Management Information Systems. My name is Shane Nurnberg. I also use the iPad with my son at home and review 'autism apps' for Autism Epicenter. I'm the founder of AutismEpicenter.com. I also speak throughout the nation about these devices and the apps that can help people with autism. My hope is that this blog helps YOU!

The Makers of PECS Offer iPraiseU, R+Remind, & Working4

It's name is a bit of a misnomer. More than a Picture Scheduler, this universal app should really be considered a visual reminder system. Because that's what it is. It's a visual reminder system that I consider golden for many youth and adults with autis… more »
