Att arbeta med unika barn : - elever med Asperger syndrom

Abstract: Abstract The aim of this survey has been to achieve knowledge about Asperger syndrome. What does this require of the pedagogue? How should the physical environment be designed in a classroom for pupils with Asperger syndrome? With qualitative interviews of one special pedagogue and one teacher in class 1-3, the level of knowledge has become better about how pupils with Asperger syndrome cope with situations in school, but also how the pedagogue can relate by being flexible and by practising one’s occupational role professionally. There is not a general method that works. It is the pupil on an individual basis who desides her or his needs or their capabilities. As a pedagogue it is always walking a tightrope to find the path and the solutions in different conflicts that will arise and support the pupils with Asperger syndrome with tools to gain understanding for different social situations in the classroom.
