Every special education classroom should have some kind of independent work system. Even students in general ed, with or without autism, need one too. Some people don’t believe that, but I’ve successfully used systems for students without autism (and there are research studies out there that back me up). In this episode, I talk about why independent work systems are so important and the benefits they provide for the classroom and the students.

0:39 - The simple reason behind my passion for building independence in students

7:09​ - Classroom benefits of having an independent work system in place

8:34 - The many ways an independent work system benefits your students

11:39 - What you can do once students get independent with their system

12:45 - What independent work systems are and are NOT designed to do
