Students with disabilities face persistent barriers in higher education, not from lack of ability, but from inaccessible design. This resource introduces the ACCESS Framework, an original prompt engineering methodology for creating neurodiversity-affirming AI tools that remove format-dependent barriers while maintaining academic rigor. Learn how to transform clinical reasoning into scalable digital solutions that presume competence, provide appropriate scaffolding, and honor diverse ways of thinking and learning. Grounded in Universal Design for Learning and disability rights research, this framework empowers educators to stop fixing students and start designing environments where every voice can be heard.
Coming Soon: Foundations of Neurodiversity in Healthcare & Educational Practice 1st Edition
What if we stopped trying to "fix" neurodivergent minds, and started designing systems that work for them?
Foundations of Neurodiversity in Healthcare & Educational Practice bridges theory and application for speech-language pathologists, educators, occupational therapists, and healthcare professionals ready to move beyond deficit-based models.
This comprehensive text introduces the neurodiversity paradigm as an alternative to medical models, grounding practice in the social model of disability and ecological systems theory. Readers explore neurological foundations of sensory processing, communication differences across neurodivergent populations, and neurodiversity-affirming assessment approaches that honor cognitive diversity rather than pathologize it.
Unlike existing literature that focuses narrowly on accommodation, this book provides frameworks for systemic transformation, from sensory-accessible design principles to workplace inclusion strategies and ethical considerations in clinical practice. Each chapter includes case studies and reflection questions, making complex concepts immediately applicable.
Essential reading for practitioners, students, and administrators committed to creating truly inclusive healthcare, educational, and professional environments where neurodivergent individuals don't just survive, they thrive.
