Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder may experience difficulty when planning, preparing for, getting started and completing work tasks. Poor executive function - the mental processes that enable us to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully - is often a characteristic of ASD. Bearing this in mind, students will benefit from explicit teaching of how to approach work tasks. In this session the presenter will present specific teaching strategies that they use in the classroom that benefit not only students with ASD but all students in the classroom. While the focus is teaching strategies, the course will also be of interest to Learning Support Officers working one to one or with small groups of students who have ASD.
