Críticas:

Teaching Music to Students with Autism provides an invaluable resource for music educators at both elementary and secondary levels. The practical suggestions, realistic situations, and sensitive, well-informed explanations presented in the book not only inform us to become more effective teachers but inspire us to become more compassionate ones. (Joy Anderson, Assistant Director, Shenandoah Valley Children's Choir and Elementary Music Teacher, Eastern Mennonite School, Harrisonburg, VA)

Following on the heels of their eminently useful Teaching Music to Students with Special Needs: A Label-Free Approach, Hammel and Hourigan have once again provided music educators with an invaluable resource for attempting to meet the educational and musical needs of students who are on the autism spectrum. (Janice Smith, Associate Professor of Music Education, Aaron Copland School of Music, Queens College, City University of New York)

A helpful support for those needing encouragement and a general resource for those wishing to communicate more effectively with parents, colleagues, and administration in order to help students attain an optimal learning environment... Recommended. (Choice)

Reseña del editor:

Teaching Music to Students with Autism provides a comprehensive study of the education of students with autism within the music classroom. The book is designed for music educators, music teacher educators, and all those who have an interest in the education of students with autism. The authors focus on the diagnosis of autism, advocating for students and music programs, and creating and maintaining a team approach when working with colleagues. A significant portion of the book is focused on understanding the communication, cognition, behavior, sensory, and socialization challenges inherent in working with students with autism. The authors suggest ways to structure classroom experiences and learning opportunities for all students. Vignettes and classroom snapshots from experienced teachers provide additional opportunities to transfer theory to real-life application.
