ALT Think UDL Ep 97: Community is the Key to Accessibility with Mark Nichols with Headshot of Mark Nichols and Quotation: "For folks who are neurodiverse, I found that they are oftentimes a lot more in touch with how they learn and what they need to learn. We're talking about autism, ADHD, OCD, dyslexia, PTSD, right. And for folks who who have those cognitive differences, they really are going to be much more effective if they can structure environments where they can learn in a certain way. We get some people who've accomplished some really amazing things. And along the way they've learned how they work, they've given themselves license to be a little bit flexible in what they do."
