果冻影院

In celebration of World Autism Week 2016, the 果冻影院 Centre for Research in Autism and Education (CRAE) released a film produced from our 鈥楽eeing the World Differently鈥� project.

The film helps viewers understand what autism feels like by talking to pupils on the autism spectrum at the Hendon Autism Resourced Provision (HARP) within Hendon School in north London. Robyn Steward, Autism and Asperger鈥檚 trainer, explains that autistic people can see the world differently through their senses, and highlights听the importance of learning about individual people.听

This video forms part of CRAE鈥檚 鈥樷�櫶齪roject, funded by the Medical Research Council. The project aims to uncover why sensory symptoms often occur in autism, and the CRAE research team is giving autistic and non-autistic children at the 果冻影院 Institute of Education, at home or at school, a series of fun computer-based tasks designed to find out more about how we all 鈥榮ee the world differently鈥�.

" When you鈥檝e met one person on the autism spectrum, you鈥檝e met one person on the autism spectrum 鈥� everybody is different.鈥�

Robyn Steward, Autism and Asperger鈥檚 trainer
