Info needed about ASU’s ABA degree
What are the core teachings or insights that guide the curriculum for ASU’s aba program? Is there anyone here that teaches or has completed the program? I’d like to hear your experiences. This isn’t interrogating, but I’m doing some research on ABA and I’m wondering how asu approaches ethics and autism.
Specifically:
- Are there any connections with autistic advocacy networks?
- Are autistic people involved in any pedagogy, training, etc?
- Is the practice still rooted in mitigating autistic symptoms? How is it described in the coursework?
- what ethics are discussed? Is the history of autism involved in coursework?
- How is masking discussed?
- How is ableism discussed?
If you are autistic, or know someone that is autistic, how empowering to you or that individual would the discipline be, when applied?
