Evidence-based practice and Autism in the schools

National Autism Center

Schools today face the challenge of providing appropriate services to a diverse and increasingly numerous student population diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In order to achieve this goal, evidence-based practice is essential in the schools. To assist school professionals as they strive to help these students reach their potential, the National Autism Center has produced this 2nd edition manual for educators. It features results of the National Standards Project, Phase 2, including information about the 14 ?Established Interventions? for children and adolescents. Also included are case studies, practical tools, and reading recommendations to help special education teachers, administrators, and families - from publishers website.
