Hi all, Imagine the following hypothetical situation.
A student enrolls in your intro to psych and human sexuality courses. The student is believed to be autistic and is attending class with a facilitator. Your college does not have a policy on Facilitated Communication (FC), but prefers to evaluate each case individually. You're aware that several professional organizations, e.g., American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, American Academy of Pediatrics, American Association on Mental Retardation, American Psychiatric Association, do not view FC as an appropriate technique. The letter of accommodation from your institution's counselors states that the use of the student's own facilitator is an appropriate accommodation for in-class work and test-taking.
