A major emphasis of the course will be the application and analysis of appropriate professional knowledge for teaching and life long learning, including critical analysis of good practice as outlined in current government reports. Students on the course will have opportunities to further their understandings of autism and will be encouraged to develop knowledge and skills which will enable them to reflect critically on current practice, particularly their own, and to analyse their work for pivotal teaching or intervention points which will support their development. The course will be of particular interest to professionals working in mainstream, or special, settings with children with Asperger's syndrome or with autism. Parents are welcome to apply.
