Schools have struggled for decades to provide expensive augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) resources for autistic students with communication challenges. Clunky voice output devices, often included in students' individualized education plans, cost about $8,000, a difficult expense to cover in hard times. However, mobile technology is bringing AAC strategies in reach for many more students, allowing them to find a voice. The availability of inexpensive mobile technology has rapidly and considerably changed services for students with complex communication needs. From touch screen phones to tablet devices, mobile computing power and user-friendly interfaces are inexpensive and readily available. People with disabilities, including students with ASD, are readily adopting mobile technologies.
