Autism
Education:
Autism is a brain disorder that begins in early
childhood and persists throughout adulthood which affects three
crucial areas of development that are communication and language,
social interaction, and creative or imaginative play.
Education for autism:
Past two decades, many effective strategies have been developed to
teach children and teenagers who have been diagnosed with autism
but however not everyone involved in education or even special
education is knowledgeable about all these methods. Few
teachers work in an autism-specific classroom and
most are responsible for classes where a variety of disabilities is
represented. Now a days overworked and stressed teachers may not
have the time or the resources to implement an effective program
for every child hence it is important for parents to develop a
sense of their child's learning style, and to educate themselves
about what strategies will best help their child to succeed in
school. At last parents are said to be the best teacher of their
child. Some education centers or organization listed below:
* The Autism Education Network's mission is to improve public
special education programs and to influence public policy that
affects individuals with autism and this mission uses new
technology and the Internet to connect in order to empower people
that affect to change.
* The TEACCH (treatment and education of autistic and related
communication handicapped children) mission helps to enable
individuals with autism to function as meaningfully and as
independently as possible in the community and they also provide
exemplary services throughout North Carolina to individuals with
autism and their families and those who serve and support them.
* NECC - 30 Years of Autism Education in New England
The New England Center for Children (NECC), a school for autism
