Active Learning in a Neuroaffirming Classroom

Activity: Talk or presentation (Unpublished)Invited Talk

Description

Traditional learning methods do not adequately support and empower a neurodiverse population of students. To understand and appreciate the diversity of neurocognitive styles is to seek to provide a diversity of ways of engaging with the learning content. This case study examines the neuroaffirmative design in the module "Autism Fictions, Autistic Writing" and proposes that we conceptualise "Active Learning" more expansively.
