Supporting Diverse Learners with Autism through a Culturally Responsive Visual Communication Intervention
Bateman, Katherine J.; Wilson, Sarah Emily
Intervention in School and Clinic, v56 n5 p301-307 May 2021
Rates of inclusion for children with disabilities continue to increase. Schools are also experiencing an increase in culturally and linguistically diverse students. As such, the diversity of children in classrooms across the country continues to dramatically shift and teachers are challenged to implement culturally responsive and relevant interventions. Social skills are a significant area of development for which children with disabilities frequently require intervention. Yet, important considerations regarding cultural awareness and relevancy should be made when implementing social skills interventions as research emphasizes the necessity of diverse representation in interventions. This column discusses the implementation and cultural considerations of a visual communication support used to increase social engagement among children during mealtimes.
