The Intensive Interaction Handbook Summary

The Intensive Interaction Handbook by Dave Hewett

The only guide you need to read on the Intensive Interaction approach returns for its second edition, this time with its founder, Dave Hewett, as the Editor.

The Intensive Interaction approach has spread around the world and has been hugely influential in developing and teaching communication techniques with individuals who have severe learning difficulties and autism.

This straightforward, no-nonsense handbook contains:

- 2 new chapters: The Intensive Interaction Outcomes Reporter; and Autism and Intensive & Intensive Interaction and more able people;

- photo stories demonstrating the approach in practice;

- links to external videos presenting the photo stories in greater depth.

More information on the Intensive Interaction community and approach can be found on dedicated social media pages, and at https://www.intensiveinteraction.org/

The Intensive Interaction Handbook Reviews

This book is an essential, comprehensive guide for anyone who wants to make a real difference in the life of people at the early stages of communication. With the welcome addition of a chapter relating to Autism and using Intensive Interaction with more able people this second edition of the Intensive Interaction handbook promises much and delivers more! -- Susi Stephenson
This book is aimed at teachers, support staff, speech and language therapists, carers and parents who look after and support people with profound and complex learning difficulties, and autism. It guides you through the Intensive Interaction approach developed by Dave Hewett in the 1980s when he worked in a school near London... This workbook is well-furnished with case studies, photographs, advice and tips on methods, approaches and practice. -- Alan Thomson * inTuition, professional journal of the Society for Education and Training *

About Dave Hewett

Dr. Dave Hewett has been working in the field of special education for 40 years. He was headteacher at Harperbury Hospital School throughout the 1980s, where he and the team worked on the development of Intensive Interaction, producing the first publications and first research on Intensive Interaction, resulting in his doctorate. With Melanie Nind he produced the first Intensive Interaction book in 1994. Since 1990 he has been an independent consultant, continuing to publish extensively and work on the development and dissemination of the approach. Dave also publishes and gives courses on challenging behaviour issues, though as he maintains in the challenging behaviour section of this book, 'behaviour difficulties are communication difficulties'. It is therefore not a separate topic. He is now director of the Intensive Interaction Institute, travelling and broadcasting the Intensive Interaction message increasingly worldwide.
