Much of the content was interesting and engaging. It offered varying perspectives on Autism, from the perspective of people with Autism and those who are experts.
In terms of relevance, there is much to think about.
Strategies for the Educational Environment throughout this course are mentioned – though not explicitly. The reference to Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence’s theory is somewhat relevant, though not new research – and not specific to student’s with Autism. I was hoping for some more practical and dynamic strategies to implement or work towards in my classroom.

high quality

Quality of this course was very good and very informative

The content was very informative and helpful. no

The course was an eye opener and contains the foundational knowledge needed when dealing with students with Autism. It is evident to me that without this knowledge it is hard to do justice by these vulnerable students.

This course was very relevant because there are students at this school who have special needs. Therefore, it is important for us to be updated with the teaching styles and strategies to support these students.

This course was fanastic.

Very relevant to my work and great content.

Quality was great – very engaging. Varied activities for every learner.
I would like to see more specific techniques to be used in the classroom (as per the video in Module 4 under Understanding Learning Styles).

Great course content and it was structured very well. I found this course very relevant and helped teach me strategies I could use in the classroom to assist in the teaching and learning of my students with Autism.

The course was interesting and relevant to my day to day work at school.

Some of the apps have had updates and the tutorial videos were not useful. One video was private and did not play.

Very relevant. I loved how this course built on the last one in the series.

Very relevant- great apps given

So much to think about. Thank you for providing coherent well documented, detailed modules for looking at apps to use in the classroom.

Well presented

Really helpful content that I can use, as a teacher to teach on the Topic of Digital Citizenship. All the content provided took a lot longer than two hours to get through.

Quality and relevance of the course was good – will be useful for upper primary students.

The course was very comprehensive and covered many relevant topics. The range of resources and videos was good.

High quality, although more infants/primary behaviour examples would have been more relevant to my role.
