The Autism Society Philippines (ASP) is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of persons on the autism spectrum disorder. We envision a society where Filipinos on the spectrum become the best of their potentials -- self-reliant, independent, productive, socially-accepted citizens of an Autism-OK Philippines.

SpEd Educators of New Era College and ASPs Jo Palomares

Josephine Palomares gave the lecture to around 18 teachers of the SPED Department, using the CD “Educating Children with Disabilities using the Digital Talking Books.” The CD is a project of ASP funded by Australian Aid. It teaches the three basic rights of the child via learning stories using the DAISY format that runs on AMIS platform.

ASP hopes that more and more children with disabilities will learn their basic rights through the help of their teachers. The SPED teachers, with their Directress, Ms. Penelope Sandoval and coordinator, Ms. Liezel Vargas were very receptive and recognized the effectivity of utilizing Daisy to teach other lessons to their special kids.
