Integrering eller inte?
Barn med högfungerande autism i skolan
The purpose with this essay is to find out how active teachers think about integrate children with the diagnosis autism into the regular school. The method I have used to find out is a qualitative interview, where I have interviewed three teachers of various age and sex.A person with the diagnosis autism has problems with communication, social interaction and the ability to form a conception. Today, we do not know what causes autism, but we do know that it has to do with a neurological disorder. The word integrate means unite or join together as a wholeness. Many children who have a handicap may feel good to participate in a school where the other pupils do not have a handicap. Especially for children with autism who need role models to develop their social skills. Pupils with autism need a structured schooling with rutines and an organisation that is intended to help them get through their school day.Keywords: integration, autism, school, children
