  Case: Autistic student resists collaboration
An incredibly bright autistic student is sitting in your classroom with few accommodations other than being provided an individual testing room on tests . She is more than capable for the coursework; actually, she is quite brilliant. The problem is that you use partner turn and shares and small group collaborative work in your classroom on a regular basis. Your autistic student really hates this and, depending on her mood, refuses to work with others. How do you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would not force a students with ASD to work with others, if they are not yet comfortable doing so. I would have others students befriend this students and in time the student will open up. I feel the students may just be uneasy because she is not used to this type of collaboration just yet.
