Treatment and Education of Autistic and Related Communication Handicapped Children (TEACCH)
Basic Characteristics
- Description
TEACCH was developed based off scientific studies that show children with ASD are relatively strong in visual information processing. As such, this type of intervention uses strategies such as visual schedules, clearly structured and organized classrooms, and highly structured learning activities that are broken down into manageable, visually organized steps. There are published reports which show improvement in behaviors and functional skills as well as high parent satisfaction with this approach, but there have been no direct studies that link improvement in ASD children with TEACCH interventions.1
