Decades of research have shown that exclusionary discipline practices are not only ineffective for changing student behavior, they lead to worse social, behavioral, and academic outcomes for students. This article explores the findings from a pilot study of the "Inclusive Skill-Building Learning Approach" (ISLA), an instructional…

Understanding the challenges pertaining to the teaching and learning of mathematics word problems is important in order to formulate effective strategies that will address the challenges. The qualitative case study reported in this article describes the teachers' and the learners' experiences regarding mathematics word problems. Data were…

The EarlyBird programme is a group-based psychoeducation intervention for parents of young children with autism. Although it is widely used in the United Kingdom, the evidence base for the programme is very limited. Using a mixed method, non-randomised research design, we aimed to test (1) the acceptability of the research procedures (recruitment,…
