Infos

This new edition of The Ziggurat Model has been updated and expanded with the latest research and the Underlying Characteristics Checklist for early intervention (UCC-EI) – backed by a comprehensive case study. The Ziggurat Model 2.0 is now even more fine-tuned for early intervention. It includes the following features, which are increasingly being adopted by school districts as essential tools in program planning and treatment: • Classic (CL), High-Functioning (HF), and Early Intervention (EI) Underlying Characteristics Checklist (UCC) (see below) • Individual Strengths and Skills Inventory (ISSI) • Updated Global Intervention Plan: Guide to Establishing Priorities, which incorporates person-centered planning. The Ziggurat Model is designed to address the needs of all individuals with autism spectrum disorders, but is written explicitly for those who are higher functioning.

The Ziggurat Model, for individuals across the spectrum and across the lifespan, is now even more fine-tuned for early intervention. This book presents a process and framework for designing interventions for individuals of all ages with ASD while staying consistent with current special education trends, including response to intervention (RTI), evidence-based practices, and positive behavioral supports. The Ziggurat Model 2.0 is newly updated and expanded with the latest research and a new version of the Underlying Characteristics Checklist for Early Intervention (UCC-EI), in addition to UCC-HF and UCC-CL for individuals with higher functioning and classic autism, respectively. The Ziggurat Model 2.0 provides instructors with: * Core topics related to autism spectrum and related disabilities * Evidence-based materials and practical applications for school, home and community * Authors who are experts in the field of autism spectrum disorders. If you're teaching a college course or preparing for an in-house training, turn to The Ziggurat Model 2.0 to cover intervention strategies/comprehensive planning.
