The prevalence of ASD has increased faster than any other neurodevelopmental disorder, from 1 in 130 to 1 in 44 in 2021. Today, nearly 50% of students with ASD spend up to 80% of their school day in general education classrooms. This workshop focuses on teaching skills that teachers and schools require to support students with ASD to be successful in general education settings. Participants will discuss challenges faced and learn practical strategies to overcome those challenges in the areas of assessment, measurement, teaching procedures, treatment of challenging behavior, and social skills.
This session is free to members of the Special Education Cooperative.
