Summary

TERC and Bridge Multimedia developed a Web-based application named the eMapper, which teachers in K-12 general-education settings used as an all-in-one software tool to adapt standards-based mathematics and English language arts content to meet the individual learning needs of their students with high-functioning autism or Asperger’s syndrome (HFA/AS).

The eMapper served K-12 students with HFA/AS participating in general-education settings. It also offered busy teachers who have limited preparation time a unique set of features for quickly and easily turning uploaded files into individualized content that could use to guide students’ learning—a function that was not available with any current product at the time.
