The Gift of Self-Taught Learning: Celebrating Autodidacts in the Autism Community
In this episode, author and publisher Dana Susan Beasley dives into the fascinating topic of autodidacts—self-taught learners—within the autism community. A few weeks ago, Dana’s son Sam came to her and confidently declared, “I’m an autodidact.” Her response? “I already knew that!” Inspired by this conversation, Dana shares insights into how many autistic individuals thrive as autodidacts, fueled by their unique passions and natural curiosity.
Through personal stories and faith-filled reflections, Dana explores the joys and challenges of supporting these remarkable learners. She encourages families to embrace the blessings of autodidactic learning as a testament to God’s creative design.
Plus, mark your calendars! On December 17, 24, and 31, Dana will present special Advent devotionals perfect for children. Be sure to tune in and share these moments of joy, love, and hope as you celebrate the season!
