Overview
The course will begin by exploring your understanding of autism, including the signs, symptoms, diagnosis, and potential causes. You’ll explore how special educational needs and disabilities can affect a child’s ability to learn.
Inclusivity in the classroom is extremely important, so you’ll explore how to develop an inclusive curriculum for autistic students.
You’ll also learn about the many modalities of schooling for students with autism, including general special schools, autism-specific special schools, autism units within mainstream schools, and being in a mainstream classroom.
By the end of Good Practice in Autism Education offered at FutureLearn , you‘ll be able to...
