It's not what you do; it's the way that you question: that's what gets results

Many professionals and carers who support people with the label of autism look to lecturers and 'trainers' in autism to provide the answers on how to 'manage' the 'condition'. This article describes how two lecturers in autism respond to this challenge by encouraging their students to focus on questions rather than answers. It is argued here that it is through the process of reflective thinking that people will find the most appropriate solutions to the issues that concern them. The article identifies some of the key questions that can support the reflective process and illustrates the applicability of these, beyond the limitations of labels, to every relationship between educator and learner.

Who gets ahead: A review article

What distinguishes economically successful American men from those less fortunate? How critical to their success were their parents, their being academically more adept, attending college, or having the right personality? These are the questions asked, and partially answered, in this useful new book by Christopher Jencks and eleven associates. Who Gets Ahead also represents a reevaluation of the conclusions presented in an earlier volume, Inequality, that had the same senior author. Although the chapters are markedly uneven in quality, we are offered here an impressive collection of well-documented and carefully executed empirical studies. Taken together, they span the main themes that have preoccupied scholarly research on intergenerational mobility and status attainment.
