Facilitating Evidence-Based Practice for Students with Asd: A Classroom Observation Tool for Building Quality Education

With a growing population of children diagnosed with autism, there is a critical need for teachers and administrators to have a solid understanding of the evidence-based practices necessary for positive academic, behavioral, and social outcomes for this population. Dr. Carnahan and Dr. Lowrey have created a framework that can be used to review and assess the current teaching environment to determine if the evidence-based practices are being implemented and offer strategies on how to improve the delivery of instruction to ensure that these students are being supported.
