I have had many students in the past with autism spectrum disorder. I teach creative writing and require peer workshop and written and verbal feedback. It can be a challenge for students with this disorder to communicate with other students openly. I try to assign a student peer they are familiar with to each peer feedback group. I also stay within visual range of the student so I can listen to the peer feedback and steer the conversation toward constructive feedback when a student has trouble articulating themselves in a social situation and to allow a student who is uncomfortable to cue to me a need for a break or social intervention. |
