Lunch Talk #45: Cross-neurotype Interactions in an English Classroom: Building Shared Understanding
You are invited to join the Lunch Talk #45 at the Faculty of Education, UIII
Afifah Muharikah, S.S., M.Hum., PhD. (Lecturer at the Faculty of Education UIII) will share about: “Cross-neurotype Interactions in an English Classroom: Building Shared Understanding”.
This lunchtime talk draws on classroom research with autistic and non-autistic students learning English together. It highlights how “neuro-mixed” interactions transform potential misunderstandings into opportunities for negotiation of meaning. The session demonstrates not only the communicative strategies employed by students but also the pedagogical value of communication diversity. Practical implications will be shared for fostering more inclusive and effective learning environments.
Key insights include:
1. Identifying strategies students employ to resolve communication breakdowns
2. Recognizing communication diversity as a pedagogical resource
3. Applying inclusive practices that enhance classroom interaction
