For over 40 years the James Stanfield Company has been producing award-winning programs to promote social competence and transition readiness in students with autism, at-risk behaviors, learning and/or behavioral disabilities, and transitions needs. President, James Stanfield, is a nationally recognized authority in special education. He has been a classroom teacher, directed federally funded research programs, was a professor of special education before starting his own organization, and developed the VideoModeling social learning system to enable “vicarious” social skill training to occur “on demand” within a classroom setting. In other words, unlike the vast majority of other educational publishers, Dr. Stanfield has been there. We like to deliver content in a way it will be remembered, with humor. Learning is more enjoyable in a laughter filled setting and humor helps students learn the materials by lifting social and academic pressures (or barriers). At Stanfield, we make learning fun by using humorous “how to” and “how to not” examples that are guaranteed to grab AND keep your student’s attention. The Stanfield library currently includes over 60 research-based programs that will help you teach vital: • Social skills • School-to-work-related skills • Conflict management skills • Family & relationship skills • Transitional skills necessary for independent living • And life skills Our programs are proven effective and are used in hundreds of school districts.
