KTLC’s Special Education Program uses Structured Teaching

  • Structured Teaching  is an intervention philosophy developed by Eric Schopler et  al at Division TEACCH (Treatment and Education of Autistic and other related Communication Handicapped  Children)
  • Benefits of Structured Teaching:                          
  1. Utilizes the child’s strength in visual skills to help focus on relevant and meaningful information in the environment.                         

  2. Adapts the environment to make it more orderly and predictable.                                        

 3. Focuses on the development of independent skills, increasing independence and decreasing behavior problems.                                                                

4. Allows us to limit the need for verbal language to mediate meaning in a learning situation.
