Produktbeschreibung
Tales from the Table is a practitioner's account of the successes and limitations of using Lovaas home education with five young boys on the autistic spectrum. The abilities and skills of these 7-to-11-year-olds before, during and after intervention are documented with a focus on the realities of undertaking Lovaas home education: the impact of a 35-hour learning week on both child and parents, changing tutors and issues of commitment to the approach. Each chapter includes a commentary on the program from a different perspective, with the voices of parents, siblings and teachers providing the context to the individual children's learning processes. This book will help parents to make an informed decision about using Lovaas interventions and will give professionals and students practical insights and useful information on the approach.
