We have in our faculty a new version of NAO robot. We need to use it to help the children with special needs improving their learning and communication skills. So, I am seeking for any data about Autism .

Please follow the links below to accommodations and best practices for students with autism. I am also attaching some research files downloaded from Ebsco as well as a very thorough matrix of autism best practices. I hope you find them useful.

Sir, you can also search the SFARI database (Simons Foundation for Autism Research Initiative) they have listed the new research in the field as well as about various genetic, induced models for autism
