Hall Of Heroes: An Interactive Social Tutoring System To Improve And Measure Social Goals For Students In Preparation For Transition To Middle School
A growing body of research underscores the need to prepare students socially-as much as academically-to ensure a successful transition to middle school and foster subsequent academic success. Recognition of how social and academic functioning are intertwined has led to the inclusion of social goals in many Individualized Education Plans, Student Support Team strategies, and overall school improvement plans. However, student outcomes are often more modest than desired when social intervention...

Dynamic E-Learning to Improve Postsecondary Transition Outcomes for Secondary Students with High Functioning Autism
Despite cognitive strengths, students with high functioning autism spectrum disorders (HF-ASD) pursue postsecondary learning at much lower rates than their typically developing peers. As a result, approximately 24% of students with HF-ASD-but without intellectual disability-report no regular educational or employment activities following high school. Further, when these intellectually capable students pursue college, they tend to drop out prematurely. Given that students with HF-ASD of...

A Computer-based Social Intervention for Students with High Functioning ASD: Using Technology to Improve Special Education
Students with high-functioning autism spectrum disorders (HF-ASD) face unique challenges with social skills and social relationships, often experiencing heightened levels of social isolation and exclusion from social opportunities. Without intervention, these social difficulties can interfere significantly with students' ability to engage in and learn at school. However, few social interventions are available that are both evidence-based and feasible to implement in a school. Further, produc...

An Interactive Social Tutoring System to Improve and Measure Social Goals for Students Related to Academic and Other School-Related Outcomes
Elementary school is a time of growth and development in students' social skills and peer relations. Prior research shows that students who are able to establish and maintain positive peer relations are more successful in school (including higher levels of achievement) and better able to cope with stressful life events. In contrast, students who have difficulty navigating the socio-developmental shifts of elementary school are substantially more likely to experience academic failure, behavio...
