DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) proposal is to develop Supporting Transition In Vocation and Education (STRIVE) postsecondary transitional support training materials for use in special education or advocacy settings for individuals with Asperger Syndrome and/or High-Functioning Autism (AS/HFA). STRIVE will be an innovative, skill-building resource designed specifically for late adolescents and young adults, ages 16 to 21, with AS/HFA as they transition from high school to post-secondary education or work. Individuals with AS/HFA often have difficulty with social interactions, organization, and abstract thinking, which makes tasks like interviewing for a job, completing college applications, and searching for an apartment especially challenging. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) mandates transition planning during high school; however, staff often lack the resources, training, and tools needed to effectively teach students with AS/HFA to successfully complete these tasks. Using a modular design, STRIVE will be created for use by professionals or paraprofessionals in advocacy organizations or schools. An innovative STRIVE component will also include co-facilitation by a young adult with AS/HFA who has successfully transitioned into post-secondary life. The proposed product will include a facilitator's guide, student workbook, and video/DVD. The unique combination of peer mentors, workbook and facilitator activities, and video/DVD scenarios will make STRIVE a flexible and easy-to-implement resource in a variety of settings, including schools, support groups, and advocacy groups. In Phase I of the project period, we will conduct formative research with professionals, advocates, parents, and young adults with AS/HFA. We will also write the full content for the facilitator's guide and student workbook for one module of STRIVE and film the video/DVD clips component for that module. A feasibility study will be conducted to determine the acceptability and effectiveness of the module. STRIVE will be the only comprehensive training resource to assist adolescents and young adults with AS/HFA as they transition from high school to post-secondary settings. By providing teachers, advocates, or other professionals the materials needed to effectively support students' transition to post-secondary life, this tool ultimately will increase services and improve outcomes for young adults with autism spectrum disorders.

描述(由申请者提供)：本第一阶段小型企业创新研究(SBIR)提案的目的是开发支持职业和教育转型(STENTINE)的中学后过渡支持培训材料，用于亚斯伯格综合症和/或高功能自闭症患者的特殊教育或宣传环境(AS/HFA)。奋进将是一个创新的技能建设资源，专门为16至21岁的青少年后期和年轻人设计，在他们从高中过渡到高等教育或工作时使用AS/HFA。患有AS/HFA的人通常在社交、组织和抽象思维方面存在困难，这使得面试、完成大学申请和寻找公寓等任务特别具有挑战性。《残疾人教育法》(IDEA)要求在高中期间进行过渡规划；然而，工作人员往往缺乏有效地教授患有AS/HFA的学生成功完成这些任务所需的资源、培训和工具。使用模块化设计，将创建奋进，供倡导组织或学校的专业人员或辅助专业人员使用。一个创新的奋进组成部分还将包括由一名成功过渡到中学后生活的患有AS/HFA的年轻人共同促进。提议的产品将包括一份辅导员指南、学生练习册和视频/DVD。伙伴导师、练习册和辅导员活动以及视频/DVD场景的独特组合将使奋进成为一种灵活且易于实施的资源，适用于各种环境，包括学校、支持团体和倡导团体。在项目的第一阶段，我们将与专业人士、倡导者、父母和患有AS/HFA的年轻人进行形成性研究。我们还将为奋进的一个模块编写辅导员指南和学生练习册的完整内容，并为该模块拍摄视频/DVD剪辑组件。将进行可行性研究，以确定该单元的可接受性和有效性。奋进将是唯一的综合培训资源，在青少年从高中过渡到中学后的环境中帮助患有AS/HFA的青少年。通过为教师、倡导者或其他专业人员提供有效支持学生过渡到中学后生活所需的材料，这一工具最终将增加服务并改善患有自闭症谱系障碍的年轻人的结果。这项第一阶段小型企业创新研究(SBIR)提案的目的是为阿斯伯格综合症和/或高功能自闭症患者(AS/HFA)制定支持职业和教育转型(STENTINE)的中学后过渡支持培训材料，用于特殊教育或宣传环境。奋进将是一个创新的技能建设资源，专门为16至21岁的青少年后期和年轻人设计，在他们从高中过渡到高等教育或工作时使用AS/HFA。
