Burgers of What?

A blog dedicated to learning and researching Asperger's Syndrome

This blog will consist of my readings, reflections, research, and understanding of Asperger's Syndrome. Through each article and book I read, reflections and links for resources shall follow. I hope by learning more about this syndrome affecting more and more children of our world, I can use this knowledge to better prepare me for the world of teaching that lies ahead.

Quiz

I find it interesting that Autism and Asperger's Syndrome are becoming more acknowledged in today's society as evident by this quiz that was posted on facebook.

This Quiz is "The Autism Spectrum Quotient, or AQ, is a questionnaire published in 2001 by Simon Baron-Cohen and his colleagues at the Autism Research Centre in Cambridge, UK. Consisting of fifty questions, it aims to investigate whether adults of normal intelligence have symptoms of autism or one of the other autism spectrum conditions."
