Teaching Technologies, Inc. (monarchtt.
com) is committed to technology-enhanced
solutions that can provide more effective and
cost-efficient support for children with special
needs. After a four-year R&D collaboration
with researchers from Children’s Hospital
Boston/Harvard Medical School and the
Monarch Center for Autism, funded in part by
National Institutes of Health grants, the
company introduced VizZle for the general
market in 2009.
Research on visual learning conducted in the
classrooms of The Monarch Center for
Autism inspired the creation of VizZle. Over
80 staff at the Monarch Center continue to bring
their dedication and experience to VizZle as
we work together
to further develop
and improve the
software.
