But students with ASD may have more difficulty pulling the most important information from the chaotic environment of that sensory sea. It can be a struggle to make sense of the moment – to make decisions about what to do and then to act on their decisions in that moment. Structured teaching is a key evidence-based intervention strategy designed to address these issues.

 

Structured Teaching: Part 1 – Individualized Visual Daily Schedules course will help school staff members working with students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) better understand and implement the structured teaching best practice of using individualized visual daily schedules.

 

We’ll discuss how the schedule addresses the needs of students with ASD, explain the critical process of individualizing the schedule, demonstrate how to teach students to use the schedule, cover the process of making needed adjustments, and explore numerous schedule examples used successfully in classrooms.
