The article my interviewee recomended is very helpful for a special education major. He supported me with an article that gives a lot of information on education for students with autism. This article talks about postsecondary education of students with autism. These students need a lot of support and special needs such as accommodations, quiet places to take tests, more time for tests and they have different learning styles. Throughout school the students will need people to look upon and rely on such as aids, teachers or even students for that matter. Students can really help and I know because I have been there and helped. I know that I had a difference in the student. Through the transition from secondary to postsecondary school a students biggest need is a constant helper, one that will be right by their side at all times.
The autor of this article is Kelly D. Roberts, PhD, who is an associate professor of education at the University of Hawai at Manoa.
