Course Four: Neurodivergence and Disability in SDE
This purchase is for the self-guided course for The ASDE Compendium: Neurodivergence and Disability in SDE.
In this course you will explore the experiences, tools, practices, and considerations for supporting folks with neurodivergence or disability in SDE. Non-coercive learning relationships and environments cannot be discussed in isolation from our human experience in our brains, bodies, and the contexts we exist in. This topic is so varied, intersectional, and important in our work as SDE practitioners and advocates. It is necessary to give it deep space and time to work through and continue to learn more. Throughout his course we can unravel assumptions about ND&D.
