  1. Hi, I'm the affairs and I'm going to be talking
  2. about autism awareness Topic.
  3. Research Question one, Why did I choose this topic?
  4. I chose this topic because I think it would be
  5. a great opportunity to get some information about what people
  6. go through every day.
  7. I also chose this because I can learn steps in
  8. ways how to help control people with this disorder.
  9. Lastly, I chose this topic because it's hard seeing people
  10. mostly every day or on social media platforms, go through
  11. something like this and go through routine every day.
  12. Why is it important to me?
  13. It is important to me because once you get to
  14. realize people with this type of disorder every day, you
  15. will realize that it's hard for them.
  16. I also think it's important to me because autism is
  17. one of the most common developmental disabilities.
  18. Some people have differences in the way their brains will
  19. process information.
  20. Lastly, it's important to me is because I know some
  21. family with this disorder and I feel bad for them,
  22. but when I look at them, they seem happy and
  23. glad. Yeah, why is it important in middlesex?
  24. I think it is important in middlesex because the people
  25. that understand can help people here in middlesex this disorder,
  26. the students ST clair walker have some experience with it
  27. and some don't.
  28. I also think it is important to middlesex because we
  29. get to learn about it and then spread the meaning
  30. and information about it so people can get an idea
  31. about it.
  32. Lastly, I think it is important in middlesex because we
  33. need to understand the people with this disorder instead of
  34. making fun of them and pulling them with this because
  35. they can't help it.
  36. The ripple effect.
  37. What is it a ripple effect is when we kindly
  38. towards one person in this way, kindness can be caught
  39. by others, like catching a cold.
  40. It's contagious, It's literally contagious.
  41. One small act of kindness or generosity can have a
  42. much larger impact on the world, larger impact on the
  43. world than you realize.
  44. The ripple effect starts as a single act, but then
  45. spreads outward, affecting many more and making smiles as bright
  46. as the sun.
  47. This shows that our actions can have a real long
  48. lasting effect on the world.
  49. You may have heard the ripple effect as a situation
  50. in which like ripples expanding across water when an object
  51. is dropped in it and how we make ripples in
  52. the water is spreading positive words and positive actions.
  53. What ripple effect does this project create?
  54. I think this project spreads like an informational happiness and
  55. helping you want to give people information about this so
  56. they can spread it, show them how happy it is
  57. to do something like the, like the ripple effect.
  58. You can spread words of positivity about autism and spread
  59. information and facts about it too.
  60. I cannot show you the videos, but I want you
  61. to listen to the videos about it.
  62. So this one is going to be talking about the
  63. ripple effect.
  64. Yeah, toss a rock and a pot.
  65. It creates ripples.
  66. That's also the case with our work.
  67. When we have purpose in our work and see the
  68. world differently, our impact on others changes to this is
  69. the owner of a company.
  70. The pressure of running a business makes him feel exhausted
  71. before he even gets out of bed at the office.
  72. He only sees problems with everything.
  73. And everyone, those frustrated feelings get passed to his employees
  74. and then on to their customers and the ripples sadly
  75. keep going.
  76. What if this ripple started from a different place?
  77. What if that business owner had purpose and his mind
  78. was filled with possibilities, not problems.
  79. What if when he saw an employee struggling, he encouraged
  80. them? And what if that employee felt uplifted empowering and
  81. then shared that positive attitude, passing it along to the
  82. customer and later that well, being radiated out to other
  83. parts of their life.
  84. That is the power of the ripple event.
  85. We want to bring the best versions of ourselves to
  86. work to customers and everyone around us and the full
  87. extent of each ripple, we'll likely never know.
  88. Mhm. Thank you for listening to that.
  89. Now, we're gonna listen to a song called the Light
  90. by thomas Rhett.
  91. Y'all might have heard of him.

  121. you might have to turn them down because they might
  122. be allowed anyways.
  123. Yeah. How will I use this to move forward?
  124. I would use this by showing how much I care
  125. for our environment.
  126. I will use this to move forward by taking my
  127. steps to make sure people states are less overwhelming.
  128. I will use this topic to share different thoughts and
  129. informational fact so people can understand what other people go
  130. through every day.
  131. I want to move forward with this topic to welcome
  132. people and make sure they feel they feel even more
  133. belonged and more comfortable at their stage.
  134. Lastly, I would move forward with this topic so I
  135. can understand so I can understand the way I taught
  136. myself another meeting is never judge a book by its
  137. cover. Now we're gonna move on to the hands part
  138. of this topic.
  139. Hands on sections.
  140. What me and my friend did for this project was
  141. a hands on work.
  142. She mostly did the hands on part and I really
  143. appreciate it.
  144. This is what we made and what we have.
  145. She made bracelets.
  146. Miss martini bought hair ties or you can use them
  147. as a bracelet to and I bought the candy.
  148. I learned that even if it's small it can make
  149. a big smile.
  150. This project helped our community spread our word where this
  151. is about the project fair and research section.
  152. This is the project.
  153. Their part.
  154. I have participated in the project fair.
  155. I want to show I care for this project.
  156. And I went so people could see such a see
  157. such a good job.
  158. Me and my partner did the project.
  159. There was a thing we did to show up our
  160. projects and people to see our work what we did.
  161. The project was a thing where people can come in
  162. the school and check out our need projects and buy
  163. some souvenirs.
  164. We had made this project.
  165. There was an informational pathway to different station there.
  166. What? There was so many stations, there were so many
  167. different types of topics.
  168. I went so I could feel proud of what I
  169. did and didn't do because at the end everybody did
  170. something and everybody should be happy the way it turned
  171. out research in the next couple of slides, I'll be
  172. informing you about some facts of autism.
  173. I'll be trying my hardest to put as much details
  174. as I can.
  175. This will give you some learning facts so you can
  176. understand what I'm talking about and what is actually true.
  177. These facts will be a little upsetting.
  178. So trigger warning.
  179. Sad. We're going to start off with a small video
  180. talking a little bit about autism.
  181. Yeah. Oh, According to the Centers for Disease Control, autism
  182. affects an estimated one and 54 Children in the United
  183. States. You've probably heard a lot of thoughts and ideas
  184. about autism, but here's an overview of what we know
  185. autism, autism spectrum disorder.
  186. Or ASD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects a person's
  187. social and communication abilities.
  188. Persons with ASD also have areas of strong interest and
  189. sometimes have repetitive behavior and sensory sensitivities.
  190. Autism is sometimes associated with strengths in the areas of
  191. visual memory, music, art, math and science.
  192. But each person with ASD is unique.
  193. Autism is a spectrum disorder and varies significantly from person
  194. to person.
  195. Okay, we're gonna stop the video right there because it's
  196. sort of a long video.
  197. So yeah, here's some facts about autism.
  198. In 2020 the C.
  199. D. C.
  200. Reported that approximately one and 50 for Children in the
  201. is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
  202. According to 2016 death.
  203. One and 34 boys identified with autism.
  204. One in 144 girls identified with autism boards are four
  205. times more likely to be diagnosed with autism than girls.
  206. Most Children will still be diagnosed after the age of
  207. four. The autism can be reliably diagnosed at early ages
  208. too. Mhm.
  209. Research indicates that genetics are involved in the vast majority
  210. cases. Children born to older parents are at a higher
  211. risk for having autism.
  212. Parents who have a child with A.
  213. S. D.
  214. Have a 2 to 8% chance of having a second
  215. child who is also affected.
  216. Studies have shown that Among identical twins, if one child
  217. has autism, the other will be affected about 36 to
  218. 95% of the time A non identical twins, one of
  219. the Children has autism than the others affected.
  220. About 31% of the time.
  221. Over the last few decades, intensive research have asked whether
  222. there is any link between childhood vaccinations and autism.
  223. The result of this research are clear that vaccines do
  224. not cause autism.
  225. Early intervention can improve learning, communication and social skills as
  226. well as under lying brain development.
  227. Applied behavior analysis in therapy is based on principles are
  228. most research and commonly used behavioral and behavioral intervention for
  229. autism. Many Children affected by autism also benefit from other
  230. interventions, such as speech of occupational therapy, developmental or loss
  231. of skills such as language and social interest effect.
  232. Around one and five Children who will Go on to
  233. be diagnosed with autism and typically occurs between the ages
  234. one and 3.
