Learn practical, relationship-based ways to teach inference skills to autistic learners using photos, short clips, and everyday moments. Build “what might be happening” thinking through context, emotion, and meaning, without drilling worksheets.
Predictive coding theory suggests autistic perception may assign high “precision” to mismatch, making the world feel continually surprising. Learn what this explains, what remains debated, and how RDI® strengthens flexibility, meaning-making, and resilience through the guiding relationship.
Autobiographical memory drives motivation, transfer, and self-regulation. RDI® uses spotlighting, review, and previewing to help autistic individuals build a usable history of competence.
Move beyond product-only targets. Write dyadic, process-based IEP goals that use co-regulation, scaffolded supports, dynamic assessment, and fading to build real agency.
