Closing the Accessibility Gap: AI-Powered Inclusive Innovation for Enhanced Autism Learners

Mainstream edtech is evolving fast, but the digital ecosystem for special education remains fragmented and overwhelming. Enhanced Autism teachers are expected to be data analysts, sensory environment designers and multi-platform integrators, and the result is app silos, disconnected workflows and burnout. This poster session shares the story of an innovation pilot that set out to change that. Developed with an ABA coach, assistive technology specialists and special services specialists, an AI-powered framework now supports Enhanced Autism teachers in multiage, dual-track classrooms. Explore custom Gemini Gems that act as personalized teacher thought partners, trained on UDL roles, IEP goals and curriculum to reduce cognitive load. See how the Inclusive Vibe Coding Equation pairs literacy tasks with student sensory profiles and preferred reinforcers to make personalization systematic, not accidental. Then walk through a three-phase roadmap that moves from scaffolded morning routines to accessible digital content to natural language vibe coding for motor-friendly learning environments. Leave with practical tools, a replicable framework and a clear path to closing the accessibility gap in your own community.
