60 Minutes ‘Down Under’…..
Do you remember the “Apps for Autism” segment that aired on on 60 minutes in October 2011?
Did you also know there is a 60minutes show in Australia? They also recently did a segment on apps and autism called “First Words”. It is almost like a ‘part 2’ to the original US segment giving an update on the some of the technology users. You can see the clip at the link below…
It is never “too late” to begin using technology for those are ‘differently-abled.’ It can make a huge difference in the ability to have improved regulation and communication. I am so impressed by Joshua Hood, a 28-year iPad user with non-verbal autism in both of these clips…amazing and inspiring.
