چکیده
Ms. Knight is studying questions about how supported text may be of use in supporting science vocabulary and comprehension skills for students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Although little research has been conducted in the area of supported eText for students with ASD, technology (e.g., computer assisted instruction) has been used for over 35 years to instruct students with ASD in academic areas. In her study, five middle school students with ASD will use the Book BuilderTM program to access grade aligned science content. Ms Knight is using a single subject research design with multiple probe across participants design to evaluate the effects of supported eText on the acquisition of vocabulary and comprehension of grade appropriate science content. In addition, social validity measures are being collected from the teachers and students on the benefit of supported eText. The following specific research questions are being addressed:
