To essentially improve the way we approach teaching for classrooms that include children with autism.  I also want to modify methods in which the children lest and interact as a class so that the classroom may be more inclusive.  I want to focus on areas such as how educators as well as families deal with behavior, communication, and new learning.

Steps:

Brainstorm on the benefit of the service learning project and the need

Preparation survey the need in the community

Planning on what the focus is (Autism)

Focus on the service that is needed and how to solve the problem

Implement the learning of how to service the needs academic curriculum

Evaluation if the project and how successful it is

Reflection on what you do and if there is anything that you can change
