Here is a list of magazines and professional journals that I am going to submit my AR findings to in hopes of having them published
- http://www.autismdigest.com/ Autism – Asperger’s Digest Magazine
- http://www.asquarterly.com/ Autism Spectrum Quarterly
- http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/carfax/1034912X.html International Journal of Disability, Development and Education
- http://www.springer.com/psychology/child+%26+school+psychology/journal/10803 Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders
It is my hope that I might help an educator, a family and a child through sharing digital social stories through these publications. I think that I have something to share with educators and parents because I am an educator and a parent of a child with autism. It is not necessarily a unique view, however it is one worth sharing. Autism has been around for a long time and Asperger’s, although diagnosed relatively recently, has always been there too. Our schools are struggling with the current influx of students with autism. Schools need to learn how to help students on the spectrum learn social skills in order to get along with neurotypical students. Truth be told, I think the schools need to change a little and social skills need to be taught to all students. Students on the spectrum may need a little more specific language and modeling, but all students benefit from learning to look at another’s perspective and turn taking skills.
