This LEND research project highlights knowledge deficits in pre service teacher preparation curriculum across eight northwest universities in preparation for working with children who are on the autism spectrum. We will present our original research and show a short video (5 minutes) highlighting both knowledge and lack of knowledge of the university students we surveyed.
