Visual Supports for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Literature Review
By Nidia Saisbhan Lashley
This issue of NASET’s Autism Spectrum Disorder series was written by Nidia Saisbhan Lashley. Visual supports provide cues to children showing the steps of what comes next. Visual supports can be used for different purposes, but generally, they are a series of tasks to be completed. Visual supports are not limited to use in an educational framework, but can be implemented at home, too. The intent of this literature review was to examine the uses of visual supports and their effects on different aspects of the lives of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
