SIEU2617 – Supporting students with sensory needs
Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) may experience difficulty when planning, preparing for, getting started and completing tasks. They may be affected by the sensory input that is occurring around them. Understanding the cognitive processes that enable students to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully will support students approaching work tasks. In this session the presenter will outline specific teaching strategies that they use in the classroom that benefit not only students with ASD and ADHD but all students in the classroom.
