When I try to register, I cannot
scroll down to check the "I Accept" box for the User Agreement.
What should I do?
To properly display the site your screen
resolution must be set to 1024 x 768 with 32 bit colors. Please
reset you screen resolution and complete your registration.
Why am I prompted to Login every time
I open the ASD Video Glossary?
To avoid having to login every time you open
the ASD Video Glossary, click the
“Remember me” checkbox before clicking “Enter.” Your browser
must accept cookies.
Why aren't the videos loading? Why do
I see "Buffering"?
Unlike other video players you may use on
the web, the ASD Video Glossary is
actually downloading 2 videos simultaneously. This takes more
time. Your connection speed to the Internet also plays a role.
Ideal performance is experienced with a broadband connection
using DSL, cable modem or T1 line. Dial-up and slower DSL
connections are not suitable for viewing the videos. If you are
attempting to access the ASD Video Glossary
from within a business or institution, the firewall settings may
block you from viewing the videos. Please contact your network
administrator to trouble shoot your particular situation.
Why can't I see the ASD Video Glossary
in my browser window?
The ASD Video Glossary
uses the Adobe Flash Player. You must use a web browser with
Adobe Flash Player 9 (or greater) installed.
Click here to download.
I clicked on a link from the Glossary
of Terms and the ASD Video Glossary did not appear?
Be sure to turn off your pop-up blocker. The
ASD Video Glossary opens in a new
window.
May I use your video clips in a
presentation I am giving?
We cannot give you permission to “download”
any video clips from the ASD Video Glossary
(nor can we provide you with a CD/DVD of clips). However, if you
are a professional who is interested in showing these video
clips in an upcoming presentation or training session, you may
do so by linking your computer directly to the
ASD Video Glossary on the Internet
when you train or present.
If you are going to present from a new
computer, be sure to login before your presentation, so you
don't have to do it during the presentation. Your link should go
right to the ASD Video Glossary. You
will need to then select the exact spot within the site you want
to go (e.g., Social Interaction, Nonverbal Behavior, clips #1)
and you can list the target spots in your presentation as a
reminder to yourself. The best performance will be with a wired
connection, not wireless. You should rehearse and view all the
video clips you plan to use in your presentation in advance and
remember not to turn off your computer, cut off the Internet
connection, or move from the site between rehearsal and
presentation time. This way, the video clips will be cached and
the loading time should be shorter.
Alternatively, you can order the DVD
On the Spectrum: Children and Autism,
a 24-minute educational video that shows side-by-side clips of
young children who are typically developing and at risk for
autism. Some of this footage is used in the
ASD Video Glossary. For ordering information,
