CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Children with ASD are often unable to use gestures-such as pointing to an object-to give meaning to their speech. They often avoid eye contact, which can make them seem rude, uninterested, or inattentive.

Detailed explanation-2: -Impairment in social functioning is a central feature of ASD. Typical social skill deficits include: initiating interactions, responding to the initiations of others, maintaining eye contact, sharing enjoyment, reading the non-verbal cues of others, and taking another person’s perspective.

Detailed explanation-3: -An area of the brain known as the dorsal parietal cortex shows less activity when someone who has ASD makes eye-to-eye contact compared to someone who does not, say scientists from the Yale University School of Medicine.

Detailed explanation-4: -Some people who have autism actively avoid eye contact and appear confused and anxious when it occurs. Some seemed to make eye contact relatively early but later reported they were actually looking at something that fascinated them (such as their reflection in one’s eyeglasses).

Detailed explanation-5: -Most autistic people experience difficulty with: interacting with others. initiating interactions, responding to others, or using interaction to show people things or to be sociable. understanding and relating to other people.
