Abstract
This professional project consists of an external website with four audiovisual multimedia projects. The projects are photos and audio sound bites of four educators who possess different areas of specialty in teaching and assisting children with autism. Each of the educators showcased in this project address the realities of teaching children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and reveal particular issues that affect autistic children seeking special education in Morgantown, West Virginia. Additionally, the project discusses social responsibility, previous media coverage on autism, and also examines where West Virginia stands social-economically compared to some its neighboring states.
