THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION FOR LANGUAGE AND COMMUNICATION OF A CHILD WITH AUTISM IN INITIAL EDUCATION

Abstract

One of the significant alterations in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder is in the area of language and communication and is one of the main concerns of parents or educators who attend them in the schools of Early Childhood Education and preschool. Many cases usually go unnoticed or failing to be confused with any other condition, that is why through the case study, a therapeutic intervention process was developed, whose objective was to design, implement and evaluate intervention strategies to favor linguistic and communicative skills from a contextual perspective in a particular case of a child within the autistic spectrum who attended his initial education. In order to intervene in this case it was necessary to develop a methodological process in three phases from the design and application of instruments to determine the needs of the subject under study, until the intervention.
