What is Autism?• A very complex, baffling developmental disability• Autism is considered a new developmental disorder as it did not clinically exist until
1944. • First described by Leo Kanner and Hans Asperger in the 1940’s• Both Kanner and Asperger choose the word ‘autistic' in order to characterise the
nature of the underlying disturbance. • The first autistic classes within special education were started in the middle of the
70s.

Possible Autistic Behaviours• An insistence on sameness.- Development of fixed routines• Repetitive behaviour and Obsessive behaviour including an obsession with a
particular topic or object• Difficulty managing anger• Attentional and perceptual abnormalities – notice fine details and very small
changes in their environment. • Difficulties generalising learning to new situations. • Can have exceptional talents and abilities (savant abilities).
Savants• "Autistic savant" refers to individuals with autism who have
extraordinary skills not exhibited by most persons. • The most common forms involve mathematical calculations, memory
feats, artistic abilities, and musical abilities. • Autistic savants account for 50% of people with savant syndrome,
while the other 50% have other forms of developmental disability or brain injury. Quite remarkably, as many as 1 in 10 autistic people show some degree of savant skill.
