ASDs and the House of Human Development, with Teresa Bolick, Ph.D.
Individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) show a vast array of strengths and
challenges. All too often, their challenges lead to behavior that interferes with success in
everyday life at home, at school, and in the community. Because their developmental profiles
are so complex, intervention is complicated and potentially overwhelming to families, schools,
and other treatment teams. The House of Human Development is a user-friendly model of
human development that suggests that communication, learning, and social competence rest
upon the foundation of efficient sensorimotor processing and self-regulation. It emphasizes the
interaction between an individual’s developmental strengths and challenges and the situation
at hand. Finally, it allows us to identify efficient modifications, accommodations, and
interventions that support learning and social competence.
Participants will learn:
-Developmental challenges that can interfere with everyday life
-Environmental modifications and accommodations that enhance availability for learning
-Strategies for teaching adaptive and efficient skills for self-regulation, communication,
learning, and social/emotional/behavioral competence
