We are continually looking for quality research articles to include in the DI Database (http://nifdi.org/research/database/di-research-database). One has just been added, highlighting the use of Language for Learning (LL) with students with autism. The article, Effectiveness of the Direct Instruction Language for Learning Curriculum Among Children Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, by Sillingsburg, Bowen, Peterman and Gayman, was published in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities this year. The study shows that the LL students scored significantly higher than pretest scores. Students in the LL group also demonstrated significantly higher language skills than students in the no-exposure group.
