Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in secondary school settings (i.e., grades 6-12) typically struggle with multiple academic challenges.

Missett, Tracy C.; Azano, Amy Price; Callahan, Carolyn M.; Landrum, Kimberly – Exceptionality, 2016
Twice-exceptional students show evidence of high academic performance or potential and also have a disability that impedes their ability to learn.

Mason, Linda H.; Meadan-Kaplansky, Hedda; Hedin, Laura; Taft, Raol – Exceptionality, 2013

Instruction for these students, therefore, should include methodologies that promote self-regulation of critical thinking processes. Fifty-eight low-achieving students were provided…

MacCormack, Jeffrey W. H.; Matheson, Ian A.; Hutchinson, Nancy L. – Exceptionality Education International, 2015
