The success of inclusive classroom depends on disabled children\'s active class participation and meaningful learning. The present study investigated one child with autism in the inclusive classroom in terms of class participation, problem behavior, and task achievement. The child was taught with structural approach to cooperative learning in mathematics, sociology, and science class. The findings of the study demonstrated that the child participated more in class with a decrease in problem behavior and achieved more learning goals in class than expected. This study also suggests an instructional model in the inclusive classroom which can be applied for both general children and children with disabilities.
