Abstract

In recent years, the educational landscape has evolved to encompass a diverse range of students with unique learning profiles, including those with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and other forms of neurodiversity, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), learning disabilities (LD), and Tourette's Syndrome. As the field of special education continues to advance, the demand for highly qualified professionals who possess the knowledge, skills, and sensitivity to effectively support these students has grown exponentially. This chapter delves into the essential methods and learning frameworks that educator preparation programs can employ to equip future professionals with the expertise needed to meet the diverse needs of neurodiverse students.
