The Autism Internet Modules were developed with one aim in mind: to make comprehensive, up-to-date, and usable information on autism accessible and applicable to educators, other professionals, and families who support individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Written by experts from across the U.S., all online modules are free, and are designed to promote understanding of, respect for, and equality of persons with ASD.

This module will define and describe structured teaching, which is a visually based approach to creating highly structured environments that support individuals with autism. Structured teaching can be used across environments, such as home, school, or work.
Social impairment is perhaps the single most defining feature of ASD. Peer-mediated instructional approaches can address social concerns. This module will explain peer-mediated instruction and intervention and provide concrete examples and steps for implementation.
