## What is VAST Avatar?

VAST is back!
Early current research into the effectiveness of using VAST in combination with Virtual Reality Goggles to increase attention to relevant motor planning information for speech has shown surprising results. 

There are 15 core words and phrases spoken by an animated avatar.

Video Modeling -- A significant amount of research has shown video modeling to be rapid and highly effective not only in teaching new behaviors but also in generalizing and maintaining these behaviors as well.

Visual Language and Literacy -- Children and adults on the spectrum who have difficulty with speaking and writing can learn to read and spell. The ability to read increases functional communication. Information that is not understood auditorily may be easily processed visually. Providing written word(s) to individuals with autism also prevents mislabeling concepts: for example, a car should not be labeled "beep beep," but rather as "CAR," in order to teach words for functional use.
