Description

Educating Students with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Partnering with Families for Positive Outcomes is a new textbook on strategies for teaching students with autism spectrum disorders with an emphasis on creating positive partnerships with students' families. Author Robin LaBarbera focuses on practical strategies for educating children with autism spectrum disorders in the classroom, with additional features describing how to partner with families in the implementation of many of the strategies discussed in the text. Each chapter will feature a case study, developed from interviews with parents and educators related to the collaborative efforts of the school. The unique feature of this book provides parent narrative about what "works" and what "does not work" in their collaborative experiences. Each chapter will also include a "Collaboration Activities" section, presenting ideas for teacher candidates to complete based on their fieldwork experiences or their own classrooms, which are also designed to apply knowledge gained from the chapter to real-world settings.
