Online learning is the new normal. Whether you are a teacher or student, we are all adapting to the new method. With the shift to digital learning, maintaining a familiar learning environment has become more of a challenge, however not one that cannot be overcome, especially by children on the spectrum. In this article we delve into how online learning helps autistic students.
At emaze we make it possible. With our out-of-the-box methods, a growing number of students are adapting easily to e-learning. Emaze offers products for all users, including those with disabilities.
Online learning creates a more relaxing atmosphere and eases anxiety. Anxious students are alleviated with the shift, as they are no longer compared to their peers. As a teacher, simply sharing a summary of the class content prior to the lesson helps alleviate anxiety more. Removing the stress of an unknown lesson will enable students to feel less tense and worried. In addition, making classes predictable helps students better focus on the work as they know what to expect. Give your student a schedule they can follow. Unpredictable changes become a great teaching moment to model how to handle changes appropriately.
