Product description

Review

This is a treasure trove of tips on how to educate children with autism spectrum disorder. This highly approachable book contains chapters by leading experts describing their insights into the nature of autism spectrum disorder, written with teachers in mind. It makes plain that teaching these children is both enormously challenging and hugely rewarding. --Uta Frith, FmedSci, FBA, FRS, Emeritus Professor of Cognitive Development, University College London

It is rare to see such a comprehensive guide to research and theory in autism that at the same time uses exemplars to make it all accessible and addresses the question that parents and educators most want to know what does it all mean, and how can I use it to make a difference? This book will be a wonderful resource for all those seeking to understand (and value) people with autism spectrum disorders. --Professor Rita Jordan, Autism Centre for Education & Research, University of Birmingham, United Kingdom

How much easier my life would have been if I had read this book during my teacher education classes years ago! This material bridges the gap between theory and practice for those who work with children on the autism spectrum, saving much trial and error. The Tips for Practical Application are especially helpful. --Mary Schlieder, special educator and author, With Open Arms Creating School Communities of Support for Kids with Social Challenges

A Required and Invaluable Textbook For Preparing Educators and So Much More!
Reviewed in the United States on 20 March 2015
Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This book as well as the previous edition is one of two main textbooks required for obtaining an certificate and license in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) at Hamline University in St. Paul, MN. Chapters from this book, fit the philosophy and rigor of 6 different courses. Not only is it designed for university students, it is an invaluable resource for those in the field as well as parents of individuals with ASD. The fact that chapters are written by individuals with direct experience as well as those with ASD, makes it a relevant and invaluable resource. The added chapters in the second edition bring in evidence based practices in a meaningful way. A chapter on emotional regulation provides students, practitioners and parents with key information and strategies to support individuals with these skill deficits. Finally an additional chapter on how to use an individual's special interests in the classroom might be the "Golden Key" to success for many individuals and may result in positive change in so many areas. Our student rave about the information, case studies and insight this textbook brings to their studies. It truly helps us to celebrate the gifts and support the challenges that individuals on the spectrum live with each and everyday in schools, homes and their communities.

Excellent Research Based Text
Reviewed in the United States on 20 September 2016
Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
As a student specializing is ASD, I am eating up all of the information in this book. For any professional interested in better understanding barriers in development and thought the life time of an individual on the spectrum this is an excellent source. It is written in a reader friendly manner and would be appropriate for a parent wanting to learn more about ASD and options for treatment their learner may have. There are so many places to find wrong information on ASD. This text has the right information.
