The book examines the effect that Teaching Assistants can have on pupils’ learning and wellbeing, and considers issues of overdependence on classroom paraprofessionals and the unintended consequences to which this can lead. Bringing together work from a journal special issue with brand new and updated chapters, the contributions offer insight into the liminal space between educator, care-giver, behaviour manager, and facilitator of learning and of peer relations, which characterises the Teaching Assistant role. This timely and important book will be essential reading for academics, researchers and students interested in special educational needs, disability, and inclusion, and those interested in the wider topic of paraprofessionals in labour markets.

Teaching Children with Autism and Related Spectrum Disorders: An Art and a Science (PDF)
by Anthony Attwood Christy MagnusenBased on twenty-five years of teaching and working with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), Christy L. Magnusen contends that it is those teachers who can blend the 'science' of education methodology with the 'art' of teaching who are best able to reach these children. Examining both these aspects of teaching, she takes a fresh look at established and more recent teaching methods such as structuring spaces, emphasizing language and planning strategies for transition and generalization, and then explores the art of implementation: why, when and how these techniques should be applied. By highlighting workable solutions to everyday problems, and emphasizing that teachers need to understand techniques and have the ability to adapt them to the situation that faces them, this book will be invaluable to all those involved in teaching children with ASDs.
