Welcome to the latest in our series of guest posts aimed at the autism community. Today Iris Egtberts of AutiPlan tells us about their Visual Schedules. Please use the comment box to ask Egtberts any questions you may have!
She writes “As you might know, people with Autism, ADHD or an intellectual disability often need help with structure and predictability. Visual schedules can help by providing activities using text and images, thus reducing stress and supporting independence!
With the help of AutiPlan, you can easily make clear visual day schedules using a collection of over 11.000 ready-to-go pictograms. You can even use your own photos and images to make tasks and activities more recognizable.
The Visual Schedules can be printed or synchronized to a phone or (iPad) tablet! The AutiPlan app uses timers, speech and alarms to help keep focus and make sure no tasks are forgotten or skipped.
