Abstract

The educational inclusion of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder requires the application of specific methodologies that address the needs arising from the deficits and neurocognitive characteristics associated with this neurodevelopmental disorder. The TEACCH method aims to maximize the adaptation of materials and structure the environment to improve the academic and functional skills and abilities of the students who use them. Adaptations based on the principles of this methodology are reflected in the management of time, space, work system, and materials used.
