NAVARRO MONTANO, Ma José  and  HERNANDEZ DE LA TORRE, Elena. Networking among teachers of autism specific classrooms to promote professional exchange for educational inclusion. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.156, pp.58-71. ISSN 0185-2698.

This paper presents a case study on collaborative learning designed by education processes in a specific working environment, autism, to support the exchange of academic experiences through networks. The sample comprises a team of eight teachers from autism specific classrooms whose work is based on designing and contrasting content and educational strategies for these students. The results indicate that planned, agreed work with a shared trajectory of ongoing participation offers the best possibility of establishing strategies on a firm foundation that leads to quality education. The working group offers professional security to its participants, favoring the achievement of shared goals and avoids professional isolation of teachers in autism specific classrooms, since networking is the foundation of their work.

Keywords : collective learning; education and communication; case study; educational networks; technology.
