Teachers`` views on the spiritual development of children with autism

Производитель: "LAP Lambert Academic Publishing"

The worlds of autism and spiritual development as laid out in this work are two which share little commonality, particularly in their marriage in the primary classroom. This work puts the focus on the teacher to challenge their perceptions of both autism and spiritual development. Those who participated were asked to enter into a discussion which looks to find some common ground between the two, where those children in our schools who have autism can be taught by a teacher who has not only considered the difficulties they face accessing the curriculum, but the wider social and spiritual world as a whole. The research and findings of this work highlight the importance of dialogue between teams of professionals to reach a shared target for what they want they want the children they work to glean from the experiences they provide them with.

George Tucker

George Tucker (August 20, 1775 - April 10, 1861), was born in Bermuda, and educated at College of William & Mary, where he studied law under St. George Tucker. After practicing law in Richmond, Virginia he moved to Lynchburg, Virginia. He served in the United States House of Representatives from 1819 to 1825, representing Virginia in the 16th, 17th, and 18th United States Congresses.

Tucker was appointed by Thomas Jefferson to be Professor of Moral Philosophy at the University of Virginia. In 1845 he resigned from the University and moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He wrote a "Life of Jefferson", "Political History of the United States", "Essays Moral and Philosophical", "The Valley of the Shenandoah", a novel, "A Voyage to the Moon" (satire), and various works on economics.

In 1827 he wrote the novel "A Voyage to the Moon" using the pseudonym "Joseph Atterley." Though a satire, it is considered by some to be the first American work of science fiction.

According to the Dictionary of Literary Biography, he died from injuries sustained when a large bale of cotton being loaded on a ship in Mobile Bay fell on his head. After his injury he was removed to Albemarle County, Virginia, where he died on April 10, 1861. He is buried at the University of Virginia Cemetery.
