Common Limitations or Challenges
This document is a summative assessment; it *tests* knowledge, but does not *teach* it. It assumes prior learning of concepts covered throughout the semester. While it provides examples, it does not offer exhaustive coverage of all possible manifestations of Autism or all potential support strategies. It is a snapshot of understanding at a specific point in time.
