This study used Multiple Probe Design across behavior as its research design. Two middle high school students with autism was recruited as target subjects. The intervention consisted of an eleven week Multimedia Computer Instruction, four class hours per week. The learning performance and effects was best demonstrated with the number of correct answers the two subjects have made to the questions on comprehension of Emotional Vocabulary, Space Vocabulary, as well as Time Vocabulary.

3.Both subjects demonstrated stably maintenance effects in Vocabulary Comprehension after intervention.
4.In terms of comparison of two subjects on the effects of intervention: (a) Subject B demonstrates better learning performance over Subject A in Vocabulary Comprehension; (b) Subject A demonstrates better performance effect over Subject B in Vocabulary Comprehension generalization probes; and (c) Subject B demonstrates obvious better performance over Subject A. in the maintenance effects of Vocabulary Comprehension.
