Synopsis

Trusted for more than 15 years, the groundbreaking DO-WATCH-LISTEN-SAY has revolutionized social and communication intervention for children of all ages with autism spectrum disorder. Now a new edition is here, reimagined and expanded for the next generation of children and support teams.

Whether you're a professional already or in training to be one, this is the resource you need to address complex social and communication challenges for children with autism from ages 3 to 18. In one comprehensive volume, you'll have everything you need to conduct effective assessment, set goals and objectives for the child, plan interventions that work, ensure generalization of skills, and monitor progress. Immediately useful new additions--including a more extensive assessment tool and a system to monitor skill development--make this a cornerstone resource for every professional working with children and youth with autism.

• Guidance on prioritizing goals and objectives, linking them to assessment, and designing interventions.
• New chapter on progress monitoring that includes a full data collection toolkit for tracking the generalization of social and communication skills
• Updated vignettes and extended case stories illustrating social and communication challenges characteristic of autism
