An Introduction to Autism and Related Disorders from Yale's Child Study Center




An Open-Access Course from Yale Not to be Missed







This course [It is in the Yale course catalog as PSYC 350] complete with all of the video lectures and even the accompanying PowerPoint slides is a treasure trove resource for the latest scholarship and methodologies in the current treatment (2012) of autism and related disorders. The course is led by Professor Fred Volkmar, the director of Yale's Child Study Center.

I personally have gone through this course and firmly believe that every prospective teacher, child-care worker and parent should acquire this knowledge. I know of no more efficient way of acquiring it.


It is one click away: http://autism.yale.edu/ .
