Visual supports include a wide range of tools that serve as cues in the environment to help a student understand a certain activity, routine, expectation, or concept. Research indicates that many individuals with autism have differences in the way auditory and visual information from the environment is processed, however the reality is that we ALL use visuals to help us navigate uncertain or unfamiliar environments and stay organized. Visual supports in the classroom might include cues, scripts, schedules, tasks, work systems, or graphic organizers that are presented with words, pictures, or colors that help draw one's attention to relevant details to support understanding. When combined with the EBPs of reinforcement and prompting, students with ASD can achieve success in the classroom.
