We need to provide more flexible seating options and collaborative work tables with whiteboard tops and adjustable-height active learning stools for our students on the autism spectrum who have trouble sitting still. In addition to using the table tops for larger than paper math computation, students will be able to "write" together as a group brainstorm on the whiteboard table tops. These tabletop ideas will be saved on iPads using the Nearpod app and Boardmaker line drawings or student photos to become social stories as visual and print reminders of positive behavior and next steps, a special needs best practice. Student groups will use the documented brainstorms as they process the first three steps in the engineering design cycle: ask, imagine and plan, before creating and improving their knowledge products. Saving the design thinking will let us go back to our work again and again to use in new, improved iterations. Implementing project-based learning and collaborative work groups, students on the autism spectrum will be able to work more successfully 鈥渟ide by side鈥 with their classmates.
