"Autism at-a-Glance" is designed for high school staff members supporting students on the autism spectrum, as well as family members of adolescents on the autism spectrum. This issue was designed to support high school staff and family members in understanding and improving the communication skills of adolescents on the autism spectrum. The content was developed to specifically target the needs of students who have more significant communication needs. Students on the autism spectrum exhibit characteristic difficulties associated with communication. Deficits appear in three main areas: (1) comprehension; (2) expressive communication; and (3) interacting with others. For each topic, it looks at potential areas of difficulty and what this might look like in the classroom. It also provides five key strategies for supporting these three areas: (1) visual supports; (2) additional processing time; (3) opportunities for communication; (4) modeling; and (5) peer supports and social connections.
