Information from the child’s specific strengths and weaknesses as discussed above will give information about which classroom characteristics should be modified or put in place. Well-planned inclusion can be a powerful aspect of the education of a student with ASD (Ferraioli and Harris 2011). In public schools, typical peers are more accessible than in many specialized settings. However,research indicates that proximity alone is insufficient to benefit children with ASD (e.g., Odom and Strain 1986). Schools must arrange meaningful inclusion opportunities suited to the specific needs of individual children with ASD in the school community.
