While this is a course devoted to a newer paradigm regarding therapy of autistic children, would have loved to see a discussion on research and evidence that ABA does not support agency or self-determination. No meaningful discussion of the chart which was the basis for Q3 on the exam.

The instructor was very knowledgeable on the information, not only as a clinician, but as a parent of a neurodiverse child as well. So she had the perspective as a parent and as a clinician which I believe helped to be more informative and see from both perspectives. The videos she showed helped show the audience the examples she was trying to explain and made it easier to understand. She did an amazing job describing and explaining the topic and made me want to listen for more than an hour!

I appreciated learning more about the topic of neurodiversity as it is something I've heard of but not really been educated on before. I will say that as a PT taking this course, there were several acronyms that must be familiar to SLPs that I had to look up because they were not defined within the presentation.

I really appreciated that the presenter did not come across as self-righteous and seemed to understand that paradigm shifts often require processing and questions to figure out how to move forward. I loved the topic and found it very interesting and informative. I don't normally add comment to these optional fields, but I just highly enjoyed this presentation and loved learning more about this movement.

The presenter thoroughly explained the concepts of Neurodiversity and ableism and the way that ableism can negatively affect those who are Neurodivergent. She also went through examples of ableism and different ways to communicate to or about those that are not the neuromajority. It was also helpful to learn the trauma that comes with masking in order to be more aware of it throughout my practice as a PT and to learn to celebrate strengths and talents, even when writing reports.

My child has had many therapists who were so disrespectful to him but did not think that they were being so. The speaker is so knowledgeable about the Neurodivergent community. All types of therapists should listen to and learn about this topic!
