Transform the way your school engages with autistic children with this simple, yet

powerful system!

Throughout this curriculum, the authors highlight evidence-based strategies that correspond to each area of the Comprehensive Autism Planning System (CAPS).

This innovative approach helps teachers and educational teams plan and implement a student's education across the school, including the individualized education program (IEP), and each curriculum relevant to the student. It takes your team through:

• The process of planning the goals/objectives to be targeted in each daily activity
• The modifications and accommodations that are needed to support the student in each activity
• The sensory supports needed to help the student stay focused
• The communication and social supports that create an environment for successful learning

In addition, the authors explain the types of data to collect for each area and note what reinforcers have been shown to be successful.

While this system was developed for use with individuals on the autism spectrum, it can easily become an essential tool for any student, regardless of their special needs.

This third edition has been updated to address current trends in special education instruction and research; with emphasis is placed on:

• Inclusion
• Successful practices that support learning for autistic students
• Evidence-based practices and case studies that apply the CAPS to post-secondary education

Through the CAPS, autistic individuals have access to meaningful instruction that will allow them to reach their full potential, through realistic and practical means.
