The makers of the GemIIni program (https://gemiini.org) have something special to share. This program is getting a lot of attention, and for good reason. There have been a great deal of studies on “video modeling” over the years, but this program has promise. Many children with autism spectrum disorders become so distracted with the sensory world around them, that they fail to develop the normal milestones early on. Instead of filtering out the “sensory world” and focusing on people, the autism brain has continues to focus on “things.” Video modeling allows a child to focus on learning in a simple and discrete manner. Video modeling builds on skills sequentially and systematically.
But don’t take my opinion, read the research for yourself.
