      <title>1. Introduction</title>
      <p/>
      <p>Autism, a neurodevelopmental disorder identifiable from early childhood, profoundly affects children’s daily lives, particularly in the realms of social interaction and communication often leading to difficulties in routine functions. Characterized by repetitive behaviours, fixation on specific interests, and engagement in particular activities, autism is classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5, 2013). The authors propose that with tailored adaptations, children on the autism spectrum can seamlessly integrate into mainstream education, actively participating alongside their same-age peers. This stance is supported by research, emphasizing the importance of inclusion as a crucial educational strategy, as highlighted by Lindsay (2007), aimed at expanding educational opportunities for students with specific needs.</p>
      <p>Studies conducted by Crosland and Dunlap (2012), Gavalda and Qinyi (2012), as well as Li et al. (2022) have indicated that students diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) experience positive outcomes when participating in mainstream inclusive classes with additional support. Consequently, interventions for ASD focus on both individualized and systemic approaches to promote inclusive education. This discussion addresses the need to review recent developments in research field studies that inform and advance interventions for fostering inclusivity, as highlighted by Crosland and Dunlap (2012).</p>
      <p>This article explores effective strategies for integrating children with autism into mainstream educational settings, drawing inspiration from Mitchell’s (2014) work on inclusive strategies for children with special needs. Early detection of autism significantly influences daily functioning, particularly in social interaction and communication, with characteristic repetitive behaviours and specific interest fixation. Advocating for complete inclusion, the authors cite research supporting the benefits of inclusive classrooms for students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) (Crosland &amp; Dunlap, 2012; Gavalda &amp; Qinyi , 2012; Mengyao et al., 2022). Emphasizing the importance of tailored interventions, the paper delves into behavioural strategies, including behavioural assessment, direct instruction, and school-wide positive behaviour support, building on Mitchell’s identified evidence-based inclusive strategies. The authors stress the need for ongoing research to further enhance inclusive education for children with autism, concluding with a discussion on future research directions in this field.</p>

        <title>2.1. Search Procedures</title>
        <p/>
        <p>The research gathered studies by employing subject headings established as inclusive strategies by Mitchell (2014), who delineated 24 evidence-based inclusive strategies. Each of these strategies underwent an individual search during the literature review, and the resulting studies were examined within their respective categories. The research utilized the expansive HyDi database, made available by the University of Malta library service. This comprehensive database grants access to various databases, including the Education Database, ProQuest Central, Social Science Database, Springer, and EBSCOhost.</p>

        <title>2.2. Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria</title>
        <p/>
        <p>For inclusion in this extensive review, each article underwent assessment based on multiple criteria. Firstly, the article needed to outline the utilization of an evidence-based intervention for at least one participant diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Secondly, the articles were required to incorporate at least one inclusive strategy. Thirdly, the research had to be executed within an inclusive setting and presented in the English language. Lastly, the articles had to be authored after the year 2010. Consequently, 36 studies meeting these criteria were identified and subjected to evaluation in this study.</p>

        <title>3.1. Strategy 1: Behavioural assessment and approaches</title>
        <p/>
        <p>Behavioural interventions often include indirect elements that enable the achievement of targeted goals, such as emotional education, emotion expression, and emotion recognition. These intermediary components differentiate behavioural interventions from conventional behavioural interventions, which directly address the specific behaviours through education or behaviour modification (Schieltz et al., 2022). Studies on this topic conducted with children with autism since 2010 are summarized in Table 1 .</p>

        <p/>
        <p>In the analysis of the conducted studies, the cohort comprised 369 individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Among these, 49 were identified as male, 19 as female, and 301 lacked gender specification. The age distribution within the cohort ranged from 6 months to 50 years for individuals diagnosed with autism.</p>
        <p>Upon reviewing the methodological approaches employed in these studies, one investigation adopted a two-group descriptive design, as reported by Schieltz et al. in 2022. In contrast, another study utilized observational methods, as documented by de Vaan et al. in 2015. Interestingly, both studies implemented identical interventions, as indicated by Schieltz et al. in 2022 and de Vaan et al. in 2015. On the other hand, additional studies employed quantitative methods, as documented by Carpenter et al. (2020) and Gillis, Callahan, Raymond, and Romanczyk (2011), both focusing on the assessment process. Other methodological approaches encompassed a mixed-effects model (Fears et al., 2023), prospective cross-sectional design (Geier et al., 2012), single subject experimental analysis (Hoch, Moore, McComas, and Symons, 2010), pre-assessment screening phase using direct observation (Van Laarhoven et al., 2021), and alternating treatments (Parsons et al., 2012). Among the articles, certain studies compared children with autism to those with normal development (Carpenter et al., 2020; Fears et al., 2023; Gillis, Callahan, Raymond, and Romanczyk , 2011). Furthermore, within articles involving behavioural assessments, some studies integrated innovative technologies (Fears et al., 2023; Van Laarhoven et al., 2021).</p>

        <title>3.2. Strategies 2 and 3: Review and practice and direct instruction</title>
        <p/>
        <p>Facilitating and overseeing recurrent opportunities for learners to encounter identical skills or concepts is imperative for the examination and application of instructional strategies. This practice holds prominence within the framework of direct instruction. Direct instruction (DI) stands as a comprehensive educational strategy, aiming to cultivate student mastery through proactive engagement and interactions with the instructor (Bereiter &amp; Engelmann, 1966; Engelmann, 1980). DI encompasses both curricula, delineating what is to be taught, and procedures, detailing how the instructional process unfolds. The intended utilization of DI involves its implementation within a classroom setting, facilitated by a qualified educator or paraprofessional (Cadette et al., 2016). A compilation of studies addressing this instructional approach in the context of children with autism, conducted since 2010, is presented in Table 2 .</p>

        <p>Upon evaluating these studies, it is discerned that a total of 135 individuals diagnosed with autism participated, comprising 105 males and 17 females. The age range of the involved children with autism spanned from 4 to 17 years.</p>
        <p>An examination of the methodologies employed in the studies reveals that four of them adopted the approach of employing multiple baselines across participants (Banda &amp; Hart, 2010; Frampton, et al., 2020; Thompson., Wood., Test., and Cease-Cook., 2012; Thompson, et al., 2019). Meanwhile, three studies employed multiple baselines across behaviours (Cadette et al., 2016; Flores, Schweek and Hinton., 2016; Head, et al., 2018; Wolfe, et al., 2018). One study utilized a curriculum-based assessment (Flores et al., 2013), and another study applied a descriptive design (Kamps et al., 2016). Additionally, a pre-test/post-test design was employed in one study (Flores and Ganz., 2014; Shillingsburg , et al., 2014). Predominantly, the studies featured a single-subject design. Commonly, direct instruction was implemented across diverse skills such as language learning (Flores and Ganz., 2014; Flores, Schweek and Hinton., 2016; Wolfe et al., 2018), social skills (Banda &amp; Hart, 2010), and time-telling proficiency (Thompson., Wood., Test., and Cease-Cook., 2012).</p>

        <title>3.3. Strategy 4: Formative assessment and feedback</title>
        <p/>
        <p>Formative assessment serves the purpose of monitoring student learning progress and furnishing ongoing feedback that proves beneficial for both students and educators in refining instructional methods. Specifically, formative evaluations aid students in recognizing their areas of proficiency and areas that necessitate improvement, prompting a targeted focus on enhancement. In contrast, summative assessments are designed to appraise student learning by assessing it against a predetermined benchmark or standard upon the completion of a unit of instruction (Tay &amp; Kee, 2019). In accordance with the stipulated criteria for the article search, only a single study met the specified parameters. The abstract of this identified article is presented in Table 3 .</p>

        <p>The research engaged a cohort comprising 199 participants diagnosed with autism, alongside 6 teachers. Among the participants, 37 were male, and 162 were female, with ages ranging between 4 and 18 years. There were also 160 children with typically development which were 40 female and 120 male .</p>
        <p>Upon scrutinizing the interventions employed in the studies, it is evident that two of them incorporated video feedback (Mackey and Nelson, 2015; Wei and Machalicek , 2021). In contrast, three studies utilized instructive feedback (Haq et al., 2017; Morton et al., 2023; Tullis, Marya, and Shillingsburg , 2019). The remaining studies embraced diverse feedback models, including modified formative assessment ( Aidonopoulou -Read, 2019), error-related feedback (Clawson et al., 2014), situ feedback (Gunby and Rapp, 2014), previous verbal feedback (Reed, 2023), questioning and feedback (Tay and Kee, 2019), and feedback-guided motor behaviours (Unruh et al., 2021).</p>
        <p>Upon reviewing the methodological approaches utilized in these studies, it is evident that the majority employed a single-subject experimental design (Gunby and Rapp, 2014; Haq et al., 2017; Mackey and Nelson, 2015; Morton et al., 2023; Tullis, Marya, and Shillingsburg , 2019; Wei and Machalicek , 2021). Additionally, a quantitative design was employed in three studies (Clawson et al., 2014; Reed, 2023; Unruh et al., 2021). One study utilized video observation ( Aidonopoulou -Read, 2019), and another adopted a case-study approach (Tay and Kee, 2019). Upon evaluating the research findings, it becomes evident that formative assessment consistently yields positive results.</p>

        <title>3.4. Strategy 5: School-wide positive behaviour support</title>
        <p/>
        <p>Contemporary research has demonstrated the efficacy of the Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) method in fostering positive outcomes for young children exhibiting disabilities and challenging behaviours (Carr et al., 1999; Dunlap, 2006). PBS, as elucidated by Javaid et al. (2020), is a systematic approach designed to impart more suitable behavioural patterns while furnishing the requisite contextual support to curtail inappropriate behaviour among children grappling with behavioural challenges. Emphasizing the importance of collaborative efforts between families and educational institutions in devising and sustaining interventions for children diagnosed with autism has been underscored in the literature. Table 4 encapsulates an overview of studies conducted since 2010, focusing on interventions for children with autism.</p>

The entirety of the participants comprises male subjects, with ages ranging from 6 to 18 years within the cohort of children with autism. An examination of the research methodologies reveals that Javaid et al. (2020) employed a case study design in one study, while Mouzakitis, et al. (2015) and Alwahbi (2022) employed a single-subject design in another. These investigations encompassed diverse skill domains; specifically, Javaid et al. (2020) focused on challenging behaviour, Mouzakitis, et al. (2015) concentrated on self-monitoring techniques and Alwahbi (2022) used virtual positive behaviour support . The outcomes of the research indicate the effectiveness of the interventions implemented in addressing the targeted issues.</p>

      <title>4. Conclusion</title>
      <p/>
      <p>In summary, this academic paper scrutinizes studies investigating diverse behavioural strategies and their impact on the daily life and functioning, particularly in the realms of social interaction and communication, among individuals with autism. The authors posit that the implementation of such strategies holds the potential for the complete inclusion of children with autism in mainstream education. Aligning with Lindsay’s (2007) emphasis on inclusion, the paper explores specific strategies aimed at supporting the successful inclusion of children on the autism spectrum.</p>
      <p>The meticulously outlined research methodology employed a systematic approach, utilizing the HyDi database to identify studies, and adhering to rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results are systematically presented under distinct inclusive strategies, accompanied by a comprehensive examination of studies conducted post-2010.</p>
      <p>In conclusion, this paper contributes significant insights to the field of inclusive education for children with autism, advocating for customized strategies to facilitate their seamless integration into mainstream educational environments. The rigorous literature review, methodological precision, and in-depth exploration of specific strategies collectively provide an invaluable resource for educators, researchers, and policymakers. The paper concludes by underscoring the imperative for continued research in this domain, recognizing the dynamic nature of interventions and the perpetual demand for evidence-based practices to enrich the educational journey of children with autism.</p>
