EBOOK: Understanding Autism in the Early Years
This book provides an introduction to the autism spectrum and explores some of the theories and research which help in understanding the characteristics of young children who may be on the autism spectrum and the likely impact on their development and learning. It offers in-depth information on some of the key features which can lead to a child being diagnosed with autism and discusses the diversity of the spectrum, as well as presenting information on available screening tools. The book considers the main areas of difficulties that children with autism display - social interaction, social communication, and imagination and play - and explores the role that early years practitioners have in ...
Autism, Ethnicity and Culture
Autism affects all ethnicities, yet professionals often lack the training to engage with diverse families.

The Emotional Lives of Young People with Autism
This study questions the validity of the American Psychiatric Association’s definition of autism, and offers evidence that even non-verbal children have an emotional life. Drawing on data from a series of intimate interviews with the parents of children with autism from three different cultures, namely the UK, India and Taiwan, the reader is shown how children with autism have emotional competence and do experience both negative and positive emotions. Parents of children with autism have to make many sacrifices and worry about their child’s ability to become independent. Good parent-teacher relationships are essential, and doctors and their teams need to be sensitive and help families find the resources that they need. In some cases, religion plays an important role as does the acceptance by society in general. The book will be of particular interest to families, teachers and professionals dealing with autism.
Classroom and Playground
Aimed at school staff with little experience of working with younger children who have ASD. The strategies are covered in detail and also in point form for ease of reference. The author has worked in South London with children with ASD, their families and schools.
The Early Years Curriculum
The Early Years Curriculum brings together a range of curriculum models from across the world, providing in-depth discussion on key issues and theories, and enabling readers to consider each approach to children's learning within an international context. It encourages readers to explore different ways of understanding the curriculum, and to develop a critical understanding of the key issues that shape the way a curriculum is designed.
The Image of Disability
A mainstay of modern life, the global media gives out information about disabilities that is often inaccurate or negative and perpetuates oppressive stigmas and discrimination. In response to representations that have been incomplete, misguided or unimaginative, this collection of new essays encourages scholars and allies to refashion media so as to disrupt the status quo and move toward more liberatory politics. Images in film, television and social media are assessed through the lenses of disabilities studies, media studies, cultural studies and intersectional studies involving critical race theory and gender.
Autism, Ethnicity and Culture
Autism affects all ethnicities, yet professionals do not always have the skills required to support the diverse needs of autistic young people and their families from different communities. As a result, families from these communities often experience issues in getting a diagnosis, access to educational and social care settings, appropriateness of social skills being taught to children, and misinterpretation of behaviour exhibited by these children, which can also lead to higher rates of exclusions. This innovative book provides professionals with knowledge about the issues faced and equips them with practical strategies to resolve them. Drawing on his extensive experience and research, Perepa combines a comprehensive overview of autism and minority ethnic communities with guidance on how best to support children and young people from these communities. An essential resource for professionals working in our increasingly multicultural society.
Autismus im Kleinkindalter
Wird beim eigenen Kind Autismus diagnostiziert, ist das für viele Eltern zunächst ein Schock. Die Ausprägung und das genaue Erscheinungsbild der Diagnose hängen zwar von der Einordnung innerhalb des Autismus-Spektrums ab, doch Schwierigkeiten in der Interaktion mit anderen Menschen sowie im flexiblen Denken sind immer zu erwarten. Wichtig ist daher, dass den Familien professionell und empathisch zur Seite gestanden wird. In diesem Buch erklärt der Autor, wie Pädagogen in den unterschiedlichen Tätigkeitsfeldern die betroffenen Kinder als auch deren Familien bestmöglich und individuell unterstützen können. Anhand von Beispielen aus der Praxis und unter Einbezug wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse werden die charakteristischen Denk- und Verhaltensweisen autistischer Kinder verständlich dargestellt und Übungen zur Förderung angeleitet. Auch Eltern oder Geschwister bekommen durch dieses Buch eine fundierte und gut verständliche Einführung in die Welt des autistischen Kindes.
