Task Builder

Product Information

Task Builder was designed to help students on the Autism Spectrum who need step-by-step visual information to perform tasks or follow a schedule. You can use Task Builder to teach or simply reinforce tasks. Task Builder’s authoring tool lets you create tasks using images, sound files, recorded sound, text-to-speech, and video to reinforce your work. You can organize separate tasks into task groups for each student. Students can replay the tasks as many times as they wish on the computer. The tasks can also be printed into small ‘booklets’ that can be used for off-computer reference.
