This book, YouCue Feelings , will introduce you to a new form of storytelling-online videos (like those on YouTube) and demon- strate how they can be used to help students understand and acquire crucial elements of social relationships. The book includes summaries and titles of online videos and helps the reader understand how they can be introduced and used to help students on the Autism Spectrum, those with Social Communication Disorders and ADHD. There are also 25 additional activities that use video viewing to start discussions about personal emotional experiences. Anna Vagin, PhD/Speech Language Pathologist, has done a su- perior job at presenting this new and exciting concept. The book is available in hard copy and in a digitial version. Visit the website to see some of the ways to use YouTube Videos for social learning.
