Book excerpt: Working towards greater access and inclusion in education and employment for young people with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) continues to be a challenge with varying degrees of success. Matthew Hesmondhalgh outlines the inherent problems with improving services for people on the autism spectrum, from specialised schooling to supported living schemes and examines the social issues and attitudes that people with ASDs confront in so many aspects of life. The author draws on his own experience of working at The Integrated Resource, which offers educational opportunities for secondary school aged pupils with ASDs and provides a charity funded supported employment programme for young adults with ASDs. He includes a host of case examples of young people and their parents who have fought battles for inclusion, explaining the obstacles they faced, their failures and their inspiring successes. Autism, Access and Inclusion on the Front Line is a frank and honest appraisal of service provision for young people with ASDs that will both inform and encourage parents and professionals.

Book Synopsis Developing Excellence in Autism Practice by : Karen Guldberg
Download or read book Developing Excellence in Autism Practice written by Karen Guldberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking book gives an accessible overview and synthesis of current knowledge of relevance to the development of excellence in autism education. By situating understandings of autism within a ‘bio-psycho-social-insider’ framework, the book offers fresh insights and new ways of thinking that bring together global pedagogic practice, research, policy, and the insider perspective. Guldberg critiques current notions of Evidence-Based Practice and suggests ways of bridging the research-practice gap. She explores the interrelationship between inclusive principles, distinctive group learning needs and the individual needs of the child or young person. Eight principles of good autism practice provide a helpful framework for how education settings and practitioners can adapt classroom environments and teaching so that autistic children and young people can thrive. Written for anyone who wants to make a difference to the lives of autistic pupils, Developing Excellence in Autism Practice provides practitioners and students on education courses with tools for best practices, and shows how to draw on these to implement true positive change in the classroom.

It felt almost like being in a foreign world littered with landmines! Like being on the frontline virtually; only this unseen enemy had been hidden inside Matthew and known only as Autism. Thus I would always find myself treading carefully, trying not to accidentally step on any of those emotional landmines, which might suddenly explode! A mother, who has literally experienced this - from the frontline could only truly write this book! I am this mother! A survivor of the battlefield and bewilderment of Autism!
