The author\u2019s of this article use their experiences as students, educators, etc. in order to inform the reader. The article begins by explaining the importance of understanding that neurodiversity has many benefits, then lists ways that teachers can help students achieve their goals in the classroom. Although this article highlights so many important ideas for teachers who have students with autism, ADHD, and Dyslexia, in my view, one of the most important ideas that everyone should understand is that people who have disabilities do not need to be \u201cfixed\u201d or \u201ccured\u201d. However, teachers can do things that can help their students be successful. This includes presuming competence, which means setting high standards for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">all <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">students, no matter what abilities they may or may not have. Another important thing that teachers can do is let students be themselves, and allow them to explore to find their strengths. This helps students to be less frustrated in the classroom. Teachers must be able to accommodate students who need certain things in order to be successful. Overall, the purpose of this article is to assist teachers in valuing their student\u2019s differences, and allowing for diversity in the classroom. Students should always feel welcomed in the classroom, and it is the teacher\u2019s responsibility to help make the classroom a safe space for everyone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www-jstor-org.libezproxy2.syr.edu\/stable\/pdf\/26388229.pdf?refreqid=excelsior%3A6ff9e5192877af6900911459ca04e5c9\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/www-jstor-org.libezproxy2.syr.edu\/stable\/pdf\/26388229.pdf?refreqid=excelsior%3A6ff9e5192877af6900911459ca04e5c9<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The article that I chose focuses on neurodiversity in the classroom.
