4.0 out of 5 stars
Competent administrative focus,
By
This review is from: Managing Asperger Syndrome at College and University: A Resourse for Students,Tutors and Support Services (Paperback)
This is an useful guide for UK college staff working directly with AS students. It is quite administratively focused, and consequently of more use to staff than students. The language is also directed more at counsellors and support staff than students (hence my four stars). Nevertheless there are helpful overviews of AS, college services and several photocopiable forms for collecting information (these may have to be tailored to fit with Institutional policies). The text in the book, once references and further information sections are ignored, is just over ninety pages.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Some good advice for students pre-University,
By
This review is from: Managing Asperger Syndrome at College and University: A Resourse for Students,Tutors and Support Services (Paperback)
Comprehensive - could go further about the possible adaptations that university can make because of the main areas of difficulty experienced by students with ASD. Excellent advice on how to apply, funding available etc.
Printable documents are very useful, saves you time making any of your own.
