Introduction of “Global FD Lecture held on October 19th

The Global Faculty Development (GFD) Program would like to invite you to the lecture which will be held on Tuesday, October 19th.

The theme is “An Introduction to Supporting Students with Autism in Higher Education”.  Guest speaker will be Ms.Alison Taylor (P.h.D).

The content of the session will explore how we think about difference, with a focus on autism. The session is built around three simple questions which can be used to identify supportive strategies and adjustments:

  What do we see?      Why do we see it?    How can we support it?

The presentation then details ways of understanding individual differences among the autistic student community to tailor support to meet their individual needs.
