Teaching Strategies for Autism Spectrum Disorders, with Maria Wheeler, M.Ed.
Many individuals who have Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have difficulty learning
through traditional teaching approaches. During this session we will explore how to
prepare students to grasp what teachers are instructing, and how to structure and
present the information to facilitate and motivate student understanding and
participation. We will also explore solutions to problems that interfere with learning and
performance for these children and adolescents. This session will include strategies for
students with ASD, Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD) and Asperger's
Syndrome.
