This course delves into the relationship between autism and neuroplasticity; exploring how the brain's ability to reorganise itself plays a crucial role in the development and management of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Students will learn about the neurological underpinnings of autism; how neuroplasticity affects learning and behaviour in individuals with ASD; and practical strategies for enhancing cognitive and social skills through targeted interventions. The course integrates current research; case studies; and hands-on activities to provide a comprehensive understanding of how neuroplasticity can be harnessed to support those on the autism spectrum.
