Post 3 (Field Trip)

I was extremely surprised by Barb's lecture. I was not expecting such wisdom from an autistic woman. I think I have had preconceived notions about autism that are completely wrong. I loved hearing her ideas on autism and how people need to be more well informed on the matter. The concept of thinking or communicating nonverbally was extremely interesting to me because I can't imagine thinking in any other way other than words. I am very interested in learning more about autism and understanding more of how it works and how to 'react' to it.
