This morning I attended a workshop on mentoring students with autism. I really appreciate the fact that TU Delft is organizing these, and the people presenting - while being neurotypical - clearly had a lot of experience with mentoring autistic students themselves.
We covered a lot of topics such as differences in information processing, social interaction, sensory processing, camouflaging, executive function. We also got some tips on how to reduce sensory overload, communicate more clearly, and how to create structure. Overall, pretty good stuff.
I also think there were some pretty glaring omissions or oversights:
