EDSP 500 - Introduction to Autism Spectrum Disorders

Credits: (3)
Instructional Method: Lecture.
Cross-Listed: EDSP 400

This course addresses the characteristics and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) including levels of severity; cognitive abilities; medical aspects; communication, language, and social development; and sensory issues. Students learn the impact of the characteristics of ASD on learning in order to develop an individualized program, which would allow K-12 students to access the general curriculum as well as an adapted curriculum. Proactive teaching strategies, accommodations, and modifications that support sensory needs, socialization, communication, and academics are addressed.
