A noisy transition, unexpected schedule change, or unclear social cue can shape how a student on the autism spectrum experiences the school day. Designed especially for K–12 general educators, this course begins with foundational learning about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and offers practical, research-backed strategies to better understand and support your students on the spectrum. Explore challenges students on the spectrum face: how anxiety shows up in the classroom, why executive functioning affects more than organization, what sensory processing feels like from the inside, and how communication and social connection present a little differently. You'll walk away with a ready-to-apply toolkit of classroom supports to promote belonging, deepen engagement, and help every student on the autism spectrum feel seen, supported, and set up to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.


This course is organized into 10 modules. You may submit each module and continue working on the course without waiting for evaluator feedback. Reference the provided rubrics to guide your work and ensure you're meeting expectations.
