This issue of NASET’s Autism Spectrum Disorder Series was written by Aygul Hecht, Ph.D. It is the second part of her article that focuses on education through music and students with autism spectrum disorder. Trying to bring the same techniques and methodologies that she used in her general education classes, she finally realized that the “general music class” techniques and methods were ineffective in the classes with ASD students. Therefore, Dr. Hect developed new methods and methodology to meet her ASD students’ needs.  In this article, Dr. Hecht briefly describe only one aspect of her lesson plans, students’ emotional response to music.
