Working with Students with Autism

Working With Students With Autism
When: Wednesday, January 28, 4 to 5 p.m. EST
Where: http://www.edweek-chat.org

Children are currently being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders at the staggering rate of 1 in 150. Many of these children are being mainstreamed, but how can general education teachers support them in an inclusive setting? How can teachers transform a challenging classroom situation into a growth experience for all students? Chat guests will discuss teaching strategies and behavior-management techniques for the general and special education classroom. If you are unable to attend the Edweek chat, transcripts are available after the chat.
