Introduction to Autism Module

Are you or your colleagues new to working with autistic children? This module provides information about the characteristics of autism, including social, communication, repetitive behaviors, thinking and learning, and how to support learners. Videos are used to describe core areas of autism and address common misconceptions of autistic behavior in the school setting. The module was originally developed for paraeducators, but special education teachers, early childhood professionals, and early interventionists have found this helpful as well.
