To support inclusion of students with autism, it is advisable to-

  • A.avoid giving visual support and visual cues.
  • B.create a classroom setting that is overstimulating.
  • C.form an unstructured setup with random routines.
  • D.use concrete, literal and consistent language.

Answer: D

It is advisable to use concrete, literal and consistent language.

Many students with autism find it hard to understand abstract, figurative or ambiguous language, idioms and sarcasm. Clear, concrete and consistent wording, together with visual supports and predictable routines, reduces confusion and anxiety and helps them take part in class.

The other options are the opposite of good practice. Visual supports and cues are among the most effective aids for autistic learners (A). Many are sensitive to noise and clutter, so an overstimulating room is harmful (B). Structure and predictable routines help, while random routines cause distress (C).
