Interventions

  • Remaking Recess — BEHAVIORAL
    Remaking Recess (RR) is a school-based social engagement intervention designed to enhance elementary school contextual factors to better support peer engagement during recess. Remaking Recess is delivered to educators through direct training and in vivo coaching by a certified Remaking Recess Coach.
  • TEAM — OTHER
    Schools that are randomized to the TEAM condition will receive an additional implementation support intervention. TEAM will leverage existing human resources in the school to specifically focus on developing an implementation blueprint to foster a supportive implementation context for paraeducators to use Remaking Recess.

Study Details

The purpose of the proposed three-site study is to test whether an educator-level implementation strategy, coaching, with or without a school-level implementation strategy, school-based teams, will maximize paraeducators' use (fidelity and sustainment) of an evidence-based social engagement intervention, Remaking Recess (RR). RR aims to improve peer related social skills for autistic students and their non-autistic peers who are socially isolated or peripheral and need support during recess.
