Special Education Transition Services for Students with Autism

Abstract

This chapter provides evidence-based supports for special education transition services for students with autism. Visual supports, video modeling, and other related strategies used in the transition from school to adult living are included. Discussion includes using evidence-based transition strategies with students who have autism, fostering self-determination in students with autism during the transition process, and clear examples of how technology can support the transition process. Practitioners may combine the transition supports presented in this chapter because each support addresses more than one characteristic or need.
