Autism Advocate Article Highlights Teaching Approaches for Improving Children's Social and Language Skills

"Early Intervention: Teaching Approaches with Demonstrated Success," by Laurie Vismara, Ph.D., and Sally Rogers, Ph.D., of the University of California-Davis M.I.N.D. Institute, is a special supplement to the most recent issue (Issue 3, 2007) of the Autism Advocate, "Successful Strategies for Educating Students with Autism." This issue was released in tandem with the first annual conference of the Network of Autism Training and Technical Assistance Programs (NATTAP), an organization whose mission is to discuss issues and share information related to the provision of training services to families, professionals and others in the autism community.

The focus of this article is on various teaching approaches that have demonstrated efficacy in educating students on the spectrum. The authors discuss such methods as didactic behavioral teaching, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and developmental approaches; children's responses to the different approaches; and practical advice to help parents in choosing the right intervention for their child.
