Literacy Instruction for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

[Guest guest]

A review of scholarly journals yields limited numbers of scientifically

based studies regarding reading instruction for children with autism. The

following is a website of a doctoral student who is examining reading

approaches for this population. I have merely only gone to the website and

not contacted the researcher directly to find out what she is going to do

with all of the information when it is collected. However, by participating

in this study one can only hope that more information will be collected that

will help children with autism learn the skills necessary to read. If you

feel this survey is relevant, please pass this information/link on to

special education (or even regular education) teachers who work with kids

with autism. This is a huge task, and our efforts to help will hopefully

yield some results in the area of effective reading strategies and

curricula.
