Autism, Learning Styles, and Visual Teaching Methods
This training session will provide information on supportive practices in the functional use of visual supports.
The focus of this course is in understanding the learning style, strengths, interests and needs of the autistic student or young person and how these can be facilitated using visuals. This will assist those who support the young person in the teaching of life skills, emotional regulation, and daily planning, creating opportunities for communication and independence.
Expected Outcomes
Understand how the use of visuals can support the thinking and learning style of autistic young people.
Understand how the use of visuals can be generalised across all environments and can build on the learning experience in school, home, and the wider community.
Learn how to develop visual supports in a practical manner to maximise the young person’s strengths and provide support if necessary.
