Teaching Music to Students with Autism is a
comprehensive practical guide for music educators who work with
students with autism. Authors and veteran music educators Alice
M. Hammel and Ryan M. Hourigan offer an approach centered in
inclusion designed for music educators, music teacher
educators, and all those who have an interest in the education
of students with autism. In this second edition, the authors
offer fully up-to-date information on the diagnosis of autism,
advocating for students and music programs, and creating and
maintaining a team-approach when working with colleagues. A
significant portion of the book is focused on understanding the
communication, cognition, behavior, sensory, and socialization
challenges inherent in students with autism and ways to
structure classroom experiences and learning opportunities for
all students. A chapter of classroom snapshots (vignettes)
written by teachers in the field of music education provides
additional opportunities to transfer information to 'real life'
situations. Finally, the book offers a chapter of print and web
resources for further study.
Book, 252 pages.
