hello everybody, i just registered and i am very happy i found this message board.
i'm an NT who is about to finish the MA degree in art education.
this summer i will be involved in teaching an art course specifically geared towards people on the spectrum. i'll have about 10 students who are "higher functioning" but i haven't met them yet and i'm not sure what to expect.
i've been reading some of the posts here and they are very helpful, thank you all for the information.
however, i would like to ask any of you if you could offer me some advise more specific to art education. i'll be very grateful to all of you who take time to respond.
for example i was wondering what kinds of art assignments did you like and why. what were your strengths and weaknesses. are there are any specific materials that you were sensitive to, for example couldn't stand the material's smell of the way it feels in your hand.
i know that all people are different and i won't expect that what you tell me will be true of everybody but i was just looking for some ideas about the kinds of things i'll might need to take into consideration.
thank you all for responding.
