The essay is due in week 5. The key requirement is to directly answer the questions. All material must be relevant to the question. Support statements by reference to the current academic literature.
“School can be very stressful for both child and parent. Every person is an individual and no one system suits all persons. Being totally against the ideas of exclusion and separation from the hub of societal life does not automatically equate to total inclusion from a mainstream school perspective. Some individuals, due to their particular needs, will always need full-time support and attention. Therefore, ideally, the education system needs to be both adaptable and considerate of individual needs. It should also be noted that even special schools may be geared towards neuro-typical development of individuals with special needs and may not be ASD-aware or ASD-prepared!” (Lawson 2001, p. 112)
Based on the statement, describe what challenges are encountered when implementing inclusive programs for students with ASD, and how these challenges can be met through evidence-based practice. Also, state and describe your position regarding an inclusive approach to education. You must provide references from the current literature for the factual information you cite about evidence-based practice and to support the position you take on the issue.
