Please remember when writing about a student with disability, your writing should be in ‘People First’ language. People First language is used in professional fields to provide meaning and value to the student/person before the disability. Examples of People First language includes “student with Autism” as opposed to “Autistic child” or “child with a disability” as opposed to “disabled child.” Papers that do not reflect People First language will lose points.
