Edweek.org is sponsoring a chat from 4 to 5 p.m. Wednesday on working with students with autism. The confirmed guests are Marcie W. Handler, the director of home and school consultation at May Institute; Paula Kluth, a consultant, teacher, author, and advocate on the topic of autism spectrum disorders; and Stephen Shore, author of Understanding Autism for Dummies and Beyond the Wall: Personal Experiences with Autism and Asperger Syndrome. Shore, who has autism, is a professor at Adelphi University.
You don’t need special equipment to participate in and ask questions during the chat, just a computer with an internet connection. This link will direct you to the right place.
