School Integration of Children with Autism
Haiduc, Lavinia
Acta Didactica Napocensia, v2 suppl 1 p27-34 2009
We consider that children with autism are invisible in contemporary Romanian society; there is even a lack of statistical data regarding children with autism in Romania. In this paper we emphasize how important it is for the education of children with autism to integrate in the school community. First we present the characteristics of children with autism, then we argue about how important it is for these children to integrate in the general education system and finally we present a model that teacher can use in order to promote school integration of these children and thus intercultural education.
