About the course

The SSTUWA, in partnership with TLN in Melbourne, are pleased to offer this online learning opportunity.

Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder may experience difficulty when planning, preparing for, getting started and completing work tasks. The mental processes that enable us to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully are often challening for students with ASD. However students will benefit from explicit instructions in 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 but all students in the classroom. 

While the focus is teaching strategies, the course will also be of interest to Education Support staff working one to one or with small groups of students who have ASD.

Delivery method: Live online event

The event will be 90 minutes in duration and consist of live delivery of content at the specified time by a presenter and a host. You will also have an opportunity to interact with other participants and engage with the presenter online. Completing this course will contribute to 90 minutes of professional learning and a certificate will be provided at the end of the session.
