Introduction

As educators, we need to find strategies which can help us accommodate students with various abilities and inabilities when teaching. In my research, I have analyzed strategies which can be used to facilitate an inclusive classroom for students with Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD). It is my hope that the information presented in my research will add something in the pool of knowledge to help the teachers teach ASD learners better.

Argument

In order to effectively measure students’ success, we ought to examine how well students who have different abilities, those with autism included, are incorporated as full and appreciated members. Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have varying degrees of intellectual and physical disabilities. While some may have problems with social interaction, suffer from repetitive behaviors, and have issues with verbal and nonverbal communication (Autism Speaks, 2015). Others may suffer intellectual incapacities and have trouble with their attention and motor coordination. Still, some students diagnosed with ASD are more talented in math, visual ability, music, and art skills than others (Autism Speaks, 2015). With the knowledge that students with ASD are abled differently, teachers should facilitate successful inclusion of such students in inclusive classrooms.

Closing

Teachers need to expand their teaching strategies in order to accommodate and meet the needs of students with autistic spectrum disorders. Educators also need to expand their knowledge on how these strategies can be personalized to meet the needs of individual students.
