Using Movement to Diagnose and Treat Autism. By taking advantage of disrupted motor connections in the brains of autistic children, researchers say it may be possible for affected kids to guide their own therapy.

Using Movement to Diagnose and Treat Autism

Scientists from Rutgers University and Indiana University have developed a novel and objective way to both diagnose and treat children with autism, by focusing on the unique ways that autistic brains process movement. Elizabeth Torres, a computational neuroscientist at Rutgers University, explores how movements reflect the way people interact with and sense their environments. Patterns in these movements can reflect brain processes and connections, and that could be helpful in understanding autism. “The way that we study the brain is quite disembodied. We pay attention to the central nervous system—brain and spinal chord–and we don’t pay attention to the peripheral nervous system,” says Torres, referring to the network of nerves involved in relaying sensory information such as touch, sight and smell.

Historic American Newspapers - Chronicling America (The Library of Congress) Education Week. Since the beginning of NCLB schools have seen many consultants come and go.

Education Week

Educators and critics have joked that NCLB went from meaning No Child Left Behind to No Consultant Left Behind. It sounds jaded, and perhaps it is, but schools are suffering from initiative fatigue, and not all the consultants that knocked on the main entrance doors were worthy. The word consultant quickly became a dirty word. Sometimes those consultants were retired school administrators or teachers, and they had valuable insight for schools. They could look at education through a different lens because they had a more holistic view.
