Teachers need to be aware of the autism spectrum disorder range and must be aware of what to expect from this population and how to teach appropriately to these students.
Pervasive developmental disorder are characterized by severe and pervasive impairment in several areas of development: reciprocal social interaction skills, communication skills, or the presence of stereotyped behavior, interests, and activities.

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.
Why do children with autism need special care in the first place?Children with autism are different. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental disability; signs typically appear during early childhood and affect a person’s ability to communicate, and interact with others. Some of the behaviors associated with autism include
•delayed learning of language
•difficulty making eye contact or holding a conversation
•narrow or intense interests
•poor motor skills
•sensory sensitivities

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

2. What is Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Autism is a group of developmental brain
disorders, collectively called Autism
Spectrum Disorder. The term spectrum
refers to the wide range of symptoms, skills
and levels of the impairment/disability. The
impairment can be mild or severe.
3. Recent Changes
Rett syndrome, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder,
Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not Otherwise
Specified (PDD-NOS) and Asperger Syndrome. With
the May 2013 publication of the new DSM-5
diagnostic manual, these autism subtypes will be
merged into one umbrella diagnosis of ASD.
Less Severe More Severe
4. What are the symptoms
of ASD?
ASD symptoms vary
but the most common
are:
• Social impairment
• Communication
difficulties
• Repetitive and
stereotyped behaviors.
5. Social Impairment
Students with ASD have difficulty interacting daily in
social situations. Some children may even:
• Make little eye contact.
• Do not respond to emotional cues in social
interactions.
• Their body language and expression may not
match what they are saying.
• Have difficulty understanding another person’s
point of view.
6. Communication Difficulties
Typically by a child’s first birthday, toddlers
can say a few words, turn when they hear
their name and point to things they want.
They can communicate with gestures, words,
or facial expressions when they do not want
something.
7. For children with ASD, reaching these
milestones are not as straightforward. They
tend to:
• Be slow or fail to respond to their name or
other verbal attempts for attention.
• Be slow or fail to point to objects to show
others what they want.
• Be delayed in developing language.
• May have difficulty with back and forth
conversation.
8. Children with ASD also:
• Communicate using their own sign language
or by using pictures.
• Develop a condition called Echolalia – repeat
words/phrases they hear.
• Use words that seem out of place and odd.
• Speak one word or repeat words without
putting them into sentences.
9. Repetitive & Stereotyped Behaviors
• Children with ASD often have repetitive motions
which may be extreme or very mild and discreet.
These repetitive actions are called “stereotyped
behaviors.”
• They may have focused interests with objects or
parts of objects, such as wheels on a moving
vehicle.
• They become upset if their toys are accidentally
moved and may line up their toys a certain way
instead of playing with them.
• Repetitive behavior may take the form of intense
preoccupation with interest such as learning about
vacuums or science topics.
10. Previously Known as
Asperger’s Syndrome
Characteristics:
• Engages in one-sided conversations
without noticing if the listener is listening.
• Displays unusual nonverbal
communication, no eye contact, awkward
body postures, few facial expressions.
• Does not show empathy, understanding to
other’s feelings.
11. Previously Known as
Asperger’s Syndrome
More characteristics:
• Displays difficulty “reading” social cues or
humor
• Speaks in an often fast, monotone voice.
• Moves with poor coordination.
• Children with Asperger’s and Autism are
visual learners.
14. Accommodations in the Classroom
• Provide a very clear structure and routine.
(Provide a picture board for activities or schedule.)
• Provide a warning of change in routine or activity.
• Use unambiguous language and avoid humor/
irony. Ex: “My feet are killing me.” or “It’s raining
cats and dogs.”
• Address student individually at all times.
• Use short sentences and repeat directions.
15. Accommodations in the Classroom
• Use various ways of presentation. Ex. Visual
instruction, peer modeling, physical guidance.
• Understand that some changes in manner or
behavior may be reflecting anxiety.
• Don’t take rude behavior personally. The target for
the student’s anger may be unrelated to the
source of the anger.
• Specific teaching of social skills, rules, etc.
• Remove distractions.
16. Accommodations in the Classroom
• Try to link work to the student’s interests.
• Explore options for word-processing or technology
for learning. (Ex. iPad, tablets, computer.)
• Protect student from teasing, Educate peers of
his/her needs.
• Support the student in open-ended and group
tasks.
• Allow some access to obsessive behavior as a
reward for positive efforts.
17. Accommodations in the Classroom
• Keep communication open and constant with
parents and other professionals.
• Remember: Behaviors that may seem like non-
compliance may have other meanings for the child
with Autism or Asperger’s. The non-compliant
behavior may be the child’s only way of indicating
the need for help, escape from a stressful
situation, lack of understanding, protesting against
unwanted events, etc.
21. Success…
“Patience. Patience. Patience. Work to view my autism as a
different ability rather than a disability. Look past what you
may see as limitations and see the gifts autism has given me.
It may be true that I’m not good at eye contact or
conversation, but have you noticed that I don’t lie, cheat at
games, tattle on my classmates or pass judgment on other
people? Also true that I probably won’t be the next Michael
Jordan. But with my attention to fine detail and capacity for
extraordinary focus, I might be the next Einstein. Or Mozart.
Or Van Gogh.”
-Ellen Notbohm, author of Ten Things Every Child with
Autism Wishes You Knew
