iPads in the Special Education Classoom

I think iPads/talents are excellent devices for any classroom.  However, In a special education classroom they can serve as more than just a learning tool.  These devices have the ability to help students with communication needs become ale to communicate more effectively.  iPads are now being used by many children and adults who have difficulties with communication.  Autism can effect the ability to communicate and the following article highlights a specific case where iPads have been an effective device for a child who has autism.  I think iPads make a great addition to any classroom!
