Supporting Students Who Are Neurodiverse

Learn strategies on how to support students who are considered neurodivergent, meaning their mental processes diverge significantly from dominant societal norms and standards. Neurodiversity can refer to students with specific diagnoses such as autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. Many other students do not have a diagnosis but may also find it challenging to meet the social demands of traditional classrooms
