The Committee on Educational Interventions for Children with Autism, funded by a
grant from OSEP
to the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences published
Educating Children with Autism. This book outlines an interdisciplinary
approach to education for children with autism, explores what makes education
effective for the child with autism and identifies specific characteristics of
programs that work. Recommendations are offered for choosing educational content
and strategies, introducing interaction with other children, and other key areas.
An ERIC Digest
(The Earlier the Better: Interventions that Benefit Children with Autism)
summarizes the findings.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders is a journal article that examines the
commonalities and differences in practice among nationally known programs. This
study presents preliminary results from a
