Pawlett, Jennifer
BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, v9 n2 p31-36 2017
There is a significant increase of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD); therefore, parents, educators, and specially trained instructional resource teachers need to come together to provide effective programming for these children. This paper provides a number of strategies and educational methods to assist educators in providing effective educational programs for students with ASD. This paper focuses on visual aids, multimodal interventions, and strategies for challenging behaviour so students receive the education that is most suited for them.
