(10) Vikram Jaswal: Community support and cognitive science help flourish non-speaking autistics

by Akhil Autism Foundation | 2 years ago

Misconceptions about autistic people— especially non speaking autistic people— abound. In this talk, Professor Jawal describes how his lab at the University of Virginia has been collaborating with non speaking autistic people and using the tools of cognitive science to correct some of these misconceptions. He offers examples from research that his lab has conducted on communication, literacy, and augmented reality. More accurately characterizing the strengths of non speaking autistic people, as well as the challenges they face, is essential to creating environments where they can flourish.
