Description

This book discusses critical issues concerning autism and education, and what constitutes effective pedagogy for this group of learners.

Autism is a high-profile area within the discipline of special education, and the issue of how to teach autistic learners remains a contested one: recent theorising has questioned a techno-rationalist approach that places the burden of change on the autistic pupil.

The author explores the values that underpin educational approaches within existing pedagogical practice: while these approaches have their individual merits and shortcomings, this book introduces and expands upon a strengths-based approach.

This book will appeal to students and scholars of autism and education, with particular regard to teaching autistic learners. ?
