There is a wealth of research and evidence in support of the efficacy of a visual language approach to educating children with autism, visual supports for autism, and the effectiveness of materials presented interactively (on a computer or electronic whiteboard). VizZle is designed to capitalize on both the child with ASD’s stronger visual processing skills for interpreting visually based information (Althaus, de Sonneville, Minderaa, Hensen & Til, 1996; Mottron, Burack, Stauder & Robaey, 1999; Shah & Frith, 1993; Thaut, 1987), and their inherent interest in multimedia (Mazurek et al., 2011, Shane & Albert, 2008).
