Need for Professional Development Related to ASD Pushed by Increasing numbers of children with ASD Emerging base of evidence about effective practices Responsibility to provide a free and appropriate public education

Why use evidence-based practices? The use of EBP with learners with ASD is sound practice Because teachers are accountable

Evidence-Based Practices and Current Federal Initiatives The NCLB act defines Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) as “the use of practices, interventions, and treatments which have been proven, through data based research, to be effective in improving outcomes for individuals when the practice is implemented with fidelity.” No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, Public Law In 2001 the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) emphasized the need for scientifically-based research and the use of evidence-based practices in the field of education.

Evidence-Based Practices and Current Federal Initiatives IDEA aligns with NCLB in its use of terminology related to evidence-based practice, i.e., ”scientifically based research” (§ ) and emphasizes its importance in sections on educational placements (§ ) as well as personnel development (§ ), and related funding. Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004, Public Law

Combating Autism Act Signed into law by President Bush as PL on Dec. 19, 2006 Goals Include: Improve Autism-Related Research Increase awareness about autism and related disorders Reduce barriers to screening and early diagnosis of autism Promote evidence-based early intervention

While the number of children identified with ASD increases, so does what we know about effective educational practices. However, many of these evidence-based practices have not yet reached school classrooms…
