Understanding the characteristics of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their implications for behavior, learning and the ability to process information is critical for anyone working or interacting with those on the spectrum -- educators, clinicians, counselors, therapists, medical staff, family and employers. This course will give you a fundamental understanding of what ASD is, how it is diagnosed, the primary areas of impairment, and why prevalence is increasing. Examine the developmental and sensori-motor differences that may impact academic, play, social and self-help skills at different stages of life, including the transition to higher education and employment. Gain a clear understanding of how sensory regulation differs for individuals on the spectrum, and explore practical tools for identifying triggers and communicating feelings. Learn to use evidence-based practices to provide effective interventions and explore typical strengths and weaknesses of individuals on the spectrum in relation to identified impairments. The course culminates with a description of the ASD system of care, an overview of the National Standards Report studies and treatments, and an explanation of how evidence-based practices are established and implemented.

Using Evidence-based Practices

In this final module, you will learn about several evidenced-based practices (EBP), including the Early Start Denver Model, developed by Dr. Sally Rogers of the UC Davis MIND Institute, two national resources that track evidence-based interventions for ASDs, and the importance of systems level support and fidelity of use of recognized EBPs.

In this lesson,

you will learn about the importance of using evidence-based practices.

You will also learn about implementation fidelity.

And systems level supports that are required for

evidenced-based practices to be implemented effectively.

Knowing about these evidence-based treatments and

practices helps us to know which treatments have research and

evidence of effectiveness, and which treatments do not.

It can allow us to make informed decisions when we select treatments and

interventions.

And it can provide us with the opportunity to support individuals with autism

spectrum disorders in reaching their full potential by using our time and

resources wisely on those practices that do have research and

evidence supporting their effectiveness.

Knowing what the evidence-based practices are is an important initial step.

But there's much more that goes into effective implementation

of evidence-based practices.

Implementation fidelity is a critical factor.

What does this mean?

Fidelity means implementing an intervention

in the same manner in which it was done in the evidence-based research.

It's kind of like following your grandma's chocolate chip cookie recipe.

If you substitute one ingredient for another, leave one out, or

do something in an incorrect order, you're not likely to get the same outcome.

To reach implementation fidelity,

the implementor needs to learn as much as possible about a particular practice.

They also need to determine if it's a good fit for the individual learner,

and the context in which the intervention will be implemented.

Then they need to identify the implementation steps, and

use the practice as it was intended.

In addition, they need to monitor their use

of the practice to ensure that they're not drifting from the fidelity of practice.

And data needs to be collected on the learner to ensure that the treatment or

intervention is having the desired effect.

In order to effectively implement evidence-based practices,

there must also be systems level support for the use of a practice.

This includes buy in and

administrative or leadership support of a particular practice.

Support for training and coaching for implementors.

The availability of materials and

resources that may be needed to implement a practice.

There must be a willingness to self evaluate, and

use learner data or fidelity checklists in order to make decisions.

And a willingness to be flexible when necessary, but

also to be stringent with the use of practices that are working.

The systems that we're referring to can be within a classroom or school setting.

They can be within a work training program,

or a community integration program.

Or they can be within a family home or family system.

No matter what the system, there needs to be a commitment and

support in order to effectively implement evidence-based practices.

With systems level support,

the implementation of evidence-based practices can happen.

And with the implementation of these practices, better outcomes can result.

>> We hope that you've enjoyed the foundations of autism spectrum

disorders class.

This class has provided you with an overview of some of the characteristics

and issues encountered by individuals on the autism spectrum.

This also provided you with information about evidence-based practices.

As research continues to provide us with additional cues about the causes in

potential treatments for autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders, we will

continue to find new ways of disseminating these findings to the community.

One way that we began to support broader dissemination is through our international

training program in neurodevelopmental disorders.

An estimated 300 million individuals worldwide

have a neurodevelopmental disorder.

And only a small percentage of healthcare professionals are familiar with these

conditions, and fewer still are expert in their treatment and support.

Our program educates our healthcare professionals from around the world in

the treatment and support of individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions.

To learn more about the program, please check out the international training

program in neurodevelopmental disorders webpage on the MIND Institute website.
