It is evident that students who use iPads for learning and communication improve in these areas; however the process of implementing the use of iPad in class is still new and raises many questions. This work was written in the framework of a special education school for medium-functioning ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorders) students in central Israel. The aim of this qualitative research was to describe the process of implementing iPads in a special education school and to examine the perceptions of staff with regard to the iPad as a communication and learning support tool for medium-functioning ASD students.
