The iPrompts Application and Childhood Disability
http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art63982.asp

iPrompts is the iPhone / iPod Touch app available from HandHoldAdaptive via iTunes that uses standard pictures as well as snapshots from an iPhone camera to create schedule and other prompts for individuals who have language or behavioral barriers to communication, staying on task or transitioning.

Learning more about this iPhone and iPod Touch software application could give you new low-tech ideas for supporting students in the classroom as well as at home by providing reminders and schedules that help avoid power struggles with staff or family members.

As seasons change and holidays approach, I hope you find many reasons to celebrate and laugh together. Have a great November!
