I teach a special group of boys who have autism. They are in third, fourth and fifth grades, though they are sometimes several years below grade level. A very small percentage of my students have access to a computer or other technologies at home and most of them receive free or reduced lunch.
My students' autism affects the way they are able to access and process the information they receive from sensory input and verbal (and non-verbal)communication. They have difficulties with social interaction and academic learning - especially abstract concepts. Language is confusing. This affects their ability to read, comprehend and write. They are typically visual and interactive learners who respond quite well to instruction that includes technology.
My boys also struggle in social situations, such as field trips and assemblies. Cameras and video recorders give them a buffer of sorts and allow them to make observations, while still being included in activities with their non-disabled peers.
