Autism is a developmental disorder characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior. Signs of autism begin before age 3 and typically include impaired social interaction and communication, repetitive behaviors, and restricted interests. Autism is diagnosed through comprehensive evaluation by a team of professionals using standardized criteria. While the causes are unknown, genetics and environment likely both play a role, as the risk of autism is higher in families with an already affected child.
Different people with autism can have very different symptoms. Health care providers think of autism as a “spectrum” disorder, a group of disorders with similar features. One person may have mild symptoms, while another may have serious symptoms. But they both have an autism spectrum disorder.
Currently, the autism spectrum disorder category includes:
-- Autistic disorder (also called “classic” autism)
-- Asperger syndrome
-- Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (or atypical autism)
In some cases, health care providers use a broader term, pervasive developmental disorder, to describe autism. This category includes the autism spectrum disorders above, plus Childhood Disintegrative Disorder and Rett syndrome.

An Insight into Autism-Care4Autism - for a laymanAK Kundra
An insight into Autism is meant for parents of newly diagnosed kids, teachers, caregivers, doctors in layman language.
Autism Friendly School is located in Hyderabad, AP, INDIA.
This powerpoint presentation was put together by Georgina Peacock, MD, MPH, Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrician for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center on Birth Defects, and presented on December 5 at our Georgia Children's Advocacy Network (GA-CAN!) Off-Session Policy Series. This month our panelists discussed the complex topic of autism, it's diagnosis, treatment and coverage.
In his prologue to the Greek edition of Frith’s “Autism: Explaining the Enigma”, the paedopsychiatrist George Karantinos (1999) argues that the child with autism is not at all sly. Karantinos comments this autistic naiveness by adding that children with autism would never play to win.
Similar opinions reveal that our understanding of autism is influenced by social practices, positions, networks and privileges. Characteristically enough, the Greek Curriculum for Autism (Pedagogical Institute, 2003) supposes, with pessimism, that some children with autism will never learn to speak. And recently, Syriopoulou-Delli (2011) contends that the behaviouristic approach remains the dominant treatment of autism, even though behaviourism neglects intellectual problems. On account of such questions, autism and special education appear as complicated and serious political, ideological and social issues, where oversimplifications are absolutely inappropriate.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. What is Autism?
sometimes called “classical autism”
it is the most common condition in a group of
developmental disorders known as the spectrum
disorders (ASDs).
it is characterized by:
impaired social interaction,
problems with verbal and nonverbal
communications, and
unusual, repetitive, or severely limited
activities and interests.
3. Other ASDs include Asperger syndrome, Rett
syndrome, childhood integrative disorder, and
pervasive developmental disorder not
otherwise specified (usually referred to as
PDD-NOS).
Experts estimate that three to six children out
of every 1,000 will have autism.
Males are four times more likely to have
autism than females.
What is Autism?
4. What are some common signs of Autism?
Impaired Social Interaction
As early as infancy, a baby with autism may
be unresponsive to people or focus intently
on one item to the exclusion of others for
long periods of time.
A child with autism may appear to develop
normally and then withdraw and become
indifferent to social engagement.
5. Fail to respond to their name and often avoid eye
contact with other people.
They have difficulty interpreting what others
are thinking or feeling because they can’t
understand social cues, such as tone of voice
or facial expressions, and don’t watch other
people’s faces for clues about appropriate
behavior
They lack empathy
What are some common signs of Autism?
6. Engage in repetitive movements such as rocking and
twirling, or in self-abusive behavior such as biting or
head-banging.
Tend to start speaking later than other children and
may refer to themselves by name instead of “I” or
“me.”
They don’t know how to play interactively with other
children.
Some speak in a sing-song voice about a narrow
range of favorite topics, with little regard for the
interests of the person to whom they are speaking.
What are some common signs of Autism?
7. Reduced sensitivity to pain, but abnormally
sensitive to sound, touch, or other sensory
stimulation.
These unusual reactions may contribute to
behavioral symptoms such as a resistance to
being cuddled or hugged.
What are some common signs of Autism?
8. Have a higher than normal risk for certain co-
existing conditions, including fragile X syndrome
(which causes mental retardation), tuberous
sclerosis (tumors grow on the brain), epileptic
seizures, Tourette syndrome, learning disabilities,
and attention deficit disorder.
For reasons that are still unclear, about 20 to 30
percent of children with autism develop epilepsy
by the time they reach adulthood.

seizures, Tourette syndrome, learning disabilities,
and attention deficit disorder.
While people with schizophrenia may show
some autistic-like behavior, their symptoms
usually do not appear until the late teens or
early adulthood.

10. Have a higher than normal risk for certain co-
existing conditions, including fragile X syndrome
(which causes mental retardation), tuberous
sclerosis (tumors grow on the brain), epileptic
seizures, Tourette syndrome, learning disabilities,
and attention deficit disorder.
Most people with schizophrenia also have
hallucinations and delusions, which are not
found in autism.

11. How is autism diagnosed?
Autism varies widely in its severity and symptoms and
may go unrecognized, especially in mildly affected
children or when it is masked by more debilitating
handicaps.
Doctors rely on a core group of behaviours are:
Impaired ability to make friends with peers
Impaired ability to initiate o sustain a conversation
with others
Absence or impairment of imaginative and social play
12. How is autism diagnosed?
Stereotyped, repetitive, or unusual use of language
Restricted patterns of interest that are abnormal in
intensity or focus
Preoccupation with certain objects or subjects
Inflexible adherence to specific routines or rituals
13. Doctors will often use a questionnaire or other
screening instruments to gather information about a
child’s development and behavior
Some screening instruments rely solely on parent
observations; others rely on a combination of parent
and doctor observations.
If screening instruments indicate the possibility of
autism, doctors will ask for a more comprehensive
evaluation.
How is autism diagnosed?
14. Comprehensive evaluation requires a multidisciplinary
team including a psychologist, neurologist, psychiatrist,
speech therapist, and other professionals who diagnose
children with ASDs.
The team members will conduct a thorough neurological
assessment and in-depth cognitive and language
testing.
hearing problems can cause behaviors that could be
mistaken for autism, children with delayed speech
development should also have their hearing tested.
How is autism diagnosed?
15. After a thorough evaluation, the team usually meets
with parents to explain the results of the
evaluation and present the diagnosis.
Children with some symptoms of autism, but enough
to be diagnosed with classical autism, are often
diagnosed with PDD-NOS.
Children with autistic behaviors but well-developed
language skills are often diagnosed with Asperger
syndrome .
How is autism diagnosed?
16. Children who develop normally and then suddenly
deteriorate between the ages of 3 to 10 years and
show marked autistic behaviors may be diagnosed
with childhood disintegrative disorder.
Girls with autistic symptoms may be suffering from
Rett syndrome, a sex-linked genetic disorder
characterized by social withdrawal, regressed
language skills, and hand wringing.
How is autism diagnosed?
17. What causes Autism?
Scientists aren’t certain what causes autism, but it is
likely that both genetics and environment play a role.
Studies suggest that autism could result from the
disruption of normal brain development early in fetal
development caused by defects in genes that control
brain growth and that regulate how neurons
communicate with each other.
The theory that parental practices are responsible for
autism has now been disproved.
18. What role does inheritance play?
In families with one autistic child, the risk of having a
second child with the disorder is approximately 5
percent, or 1 in 20.
