"Improving communication in children with autism creates a more effective teaching environment for them".

Otherwise could you please suggest to me how else I could phrase it? Thanks in advance

Improving communication skills in children with autism will create a more effective learning environment for them.

"Improving communication in children with autism creates a platform for them so they can learn more effectively".

'Keep the focus on the person with the disability and you cant go wrong'.

A teacher should already understand how to analyse that question to their advantage ;)

Yeah, that doesn't work for me. Are you doing a term paper or something?

Try: "improving communication in children with autism can lead to a greater capability for the child to learn in other situations."

???How does that work for you? I don't know a whole lot about autism, but with term papers always back up a statement with facts.

Creating an effective teaching enviroment for autistic children would include improving their communication skills.

It means to me:

"Helping children with autism learn to communicate improves the educational environment."

or:

"Teaching children with autism to communicate allows educators to effectively communicate with their autistic students."

or (simplest):

"For classroom harmony, autistic students need to be able to talk to their teachers about their problems. Teaching autistic students to communicate their problems allows the free flow of information between parent, teacher, and student."

etiology of autism is unknown, many researchers suspect that autism results from genetically mediated vulnerabilities to environmental triggers.
researchers have found seven genes prevalent among individuals diagnosed as autistic. Some estimate that autism occurs in as many as one child in 166 in the United States. However, the National Institute of Mental Health gives a more conservative estimate of one in 1000.[1] Overall, autism is three to four times more common in boys than girls

According to Simon Baron-Cohen, autistic children often also appear to lack a "theory of mind", the ability to see things from another person's perspective, a behavior cited as exclusive to human beings above the age of five and, possibly, other higher primates such as adult gorillas, chimpanzees and bonobos. Typical 5-year-olds can develop insights into other people's different knowledge, feelings, and intentions, interpretations based upon social cues (e.g., gestures, facial expressions). An autistic individual may lack these interpretation skills, an inability that leaves them unable to predict or understand other people's actions.


Children will exhibit problems coping with the normal sensory input. Indicators of this disorder include oversensitivity or underreactivity to touch, movement, sights, or sounds; physical clumsiness or carelessness; poor body awareness; a tendency to be easily distracted; impulsive physical or verbal behavior; an activity level that is unusually high or low; not unwinding or calming oneself; difficulty learning new movements; difficulty in making transitions from one situation to another; social and/or emotional problems; delays in speech, language or motor skills; specific learning difficulties/delays in academic achievement. However, it is essential to keep in mind that while most people with autism have some degree of sensory integration difficulty, not every person who has sensory problems is autistic.

Communication difficulties
By age 3, typical children have passed predictable language learning milestones; one of the earliest is babbling. By the first birthday, a typical toddler says words, turns when he or she hears his or her name, points when he or she wants a toy, and when offered something distasteful, makes it clear that the answer is "no." It should be noted, however, that late language development does occur in a minority of neurotypical children.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism#Terminology


Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and is the result of a neurological disorder that affects the normal functioning of the brain,

As mentioned previously, autism is a spectrum disorder, and although it is defined by a certain set of behaviors, children and adults with autism can exhibit any combination of these behaviors in any degree of severity. Two children, both with the same diagnosis, can act completely different from one another and have varying capabilities.

There is no known single cause for autism, but it is generally accepted by the medical community that it is caused by abnormalities in brain structure or function. Brain scans show differences in the shape and structure of the brain in autistic versus non-autistic children. Researchers are investigating a number of theories, including the link between heredity, genetics and medical problems. While no one gene has been identified as causing autism, in many families there appears to be a pattern of autism or related disabilities, further supporting a genetic basis to the disorder. Researchers are searching for irregular segments of genetic code that autistic children may have inherited. It also appears that some children are born with a higher susceptibility to autism, but researchers have not yet identified a single "trigger" that causes autism to develop.

No it doesnt make sense, to the point where I dont even know what you are trying to say, not enough for me to reword it anyways.

Learning instead of teaching maybe? Is that what you wanna say?
