1.talk about your self,what you do,your job.university you are at.past research,how can people read your research

1,i am the Director of teaching and learning for the institute of education the university of reading .we work mainly in the field of initial 

teacher training and we train 500 teachers a year.my job means that i am concerned with the quality of the training we provide .i am responsible for student engagement,when students don,t do well or stop attending class,s.i.m al so responceable for making sure group follows universirt guide lines and policies .my reserch interest is in the field of Autism.my PHD looked at the issue of appropriate educatinal provision from the point  of view of parents,schools, local authorities.it showed that ervery one defined it differently ,and this meant it was hard to make appropriate provision .///as we all though that to be different things / i become interested in this research AFTER working in school where a number of adolescents had difficulities understanding their sexual maturity .

what would you like too see change in the autism/aspergers world 

2,this is a hard question to answer ,i,d like to see a better system for those who are doing research.research to gain access to individuals who are on the spectrum to be involved in conducting robust research that is published and shared

what research have you NOT done .but would like too do

3,for me it is about getting some funding to be able to do more research that i want too do,i need to apply for grants so that university will allow me to spend more time on this

naked/nudity very common in autism/aspergers ,do you think this is how we become aware understand our bodies 

4,i would agree with your conclusion 

your research is on a very rare subject.,sex//puberty.how,why did you choose this subject for autism..aspergers 

5,i was working at a school .i was able too see the difficulty that staff had in addressing this from an education point of view nobody wanted

too dicuss this and no one had an idea of how to hepl indiviuals understand their bodies///puberty .every one is afraid of safe guarding issues so that has an impact as well 

    part two is tomorrow
