We are a multidisciplinary group of researchers, engineers, teachers and psychologists working with children with autistic spectrum disorder located in several school districts around United States. 

Teachers play an important role in the effort to increase the communication skills of children with autism and determine the required teaching style. However, they do not have any tools that allow them to share ideas, data, and information, and provide objective feedback on communicative behavior of children with autism. 

We are developing a communication system for children with severe autism using Smartphones to enable on-the-go communication (more information available at http://www.communicationautism.com/ ).

This WEB community portal has the goal to create an environment that lets teachers, therapist and parents evaluate longitudinal communication data from the SmartPhones for individual children and for groups of children, discuss findings, and complement this data with other child-specific data using modern data analysis and data mining tools.  This WEB community portal also provides general information about autism spectrum disorder, points to research activities and opportunities and finally provide links to valuable information for teacher and parent of children with autism.
