  • Description

In recent years there has been a national movement toward integrating information from neuroscience into teacher training. The notion here is that teachers have the noble task of educating minds, and the mind is the brain at work. Therefore, it may benefit teachers to improve their understanding of how the brain works and learns to best meet the demands of their task. Nowhere is this logic more evident than in the teaching of children with neurodevelopmental disorders. Indeed, the results of one recent study at UC Davis indicated that teacher training in autism found information about research and theory on brain model of neurocognitive models of autism to be useful and motivating in their work. Accordingly this volume will provide chapters specific to brain development and the cognitive neuroscience of learning in autism. Coverage will include:

·         the neurodevelopment of autism: when and how does ASD develop

·         the role of genes and environment in autism

·         medical problems of children with autism in the classroom

·         the neuroscience of sensory integration and children with autism in the classroom

·         the neuroscience of repetitive behaviors and problems with transitions at school

·         the neuropsychology of autism and learning

·         the social brain and social learning in autism

·         the neuroscience of rewards and classroom learning in autism

·         generalization of learning, the neuroscience of encoding and concept formation in autism
