Autism Intervention Paper
What we know about Autism today is much different from what we knew ten years ago. While there is not a known cure, there are several interventions that can improve everyday skills for individuals with ASD. One intervention may work for one individual but that doesn’t mean it will work for all individuals with ASD. The authors state that it is important to find an intervention that best fits the individual. Applying this information will allow me to find an intervention that fits my student’s strengths and needs. The results also opened my eyes. I found it interesting that the music therapist were knowledgeable about ASD and confident with working with individuals with ASD, but they felt that more training is needed. No matter how long you
have gone to school or how much experience you have, there is always more to learn. Learning does not stop when you finish school, there is always a need to learn more.
