In this interactive session with Dr. Paula Kluth, participants will learn practical ways of supporting students with autism spectrum disorder as well as other disabilities within a general education classroom. The topics that will be addressed include defining (and redefining) autism, listening to the voices of those with autism, differentiating instruction, creating more active
and responsive lessons, making the classroom comfortable, collaboration strategies between general and special education teachers and paraprofessionals as well as providing opportunities for communication and social skill development. The session will focus on the importance of pushing beyond access and participation and asking schools to challenge students and to understand each learner as complex and capable.
