About the Author Autism Partnership directors Ron Leaf, PhD, John McEachin, PhD and Mitchell Taubman, PhD have been pioneers in the fields of Autism and Applied Behavior Analysis since the 1970's. The goal is to help children with ASD learn life changing skills, so that they can converse with their families, play with friends, and develop meaningful friendships
Volume 1 demonstrates the Cool versus Not Cool strategy. The goal at Autism Partnership has always been to blend a natural, child-friendly approach to teaching while remaining determinedly systematic. Building on the seminal guide and curriculum A Work In Progress, Autism Partnership has followed up with this highly anticipated companion series that synthesizes solid information on various teaching strategies with demonstrations of actual sessions with students on DVD. This series offers viewers the unique opportunity to see these approaches implemented in actual teaching environments. Essentially, the strategy teaches students to understand the difference between behaviors that are socially appropriate (cool) and those that are inappropriate (not cool).. This is one of Autism Partnership's most often used strategies for teaching students foundational as well as advanced social skills
