Comparing Einstein 'And' Temple Grandin Temple's Blind

I myself have a form of high functioning autism known as Asperger’s Syndrome. Asperger’s Syndrome, or AS for short, was discovered in the early 20th century by a physician for whom it’s named, who

“Work to view my autism as a different ability rather than a disability. Look past what you may see as limitations and see the gifts autism has given me…Be my advocate, be my friend, and we’ll see just how far we can go” –Ellen Botbohm, author of Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew.

Temple Grandin was able to do amazing things for agriculture even though she struggled with severe autism. She also changed many things in the way animals were handled and treated. Temple was able to set standards higher not only for those who had autism to lead better lives, but also for animals to getter the treatment and care they deserve.

The Case of Temple Grandin paints a picture of a young woman’s determination and hard work while struggling with autism during a time when the disorder was unknown. This case discusses Grandin’s challenges, early diagnosis, growth and development in school, and support from her mother. Temple Grandin could not speak like the other children at the age of two, so because doctors could not find any physical issues she had been subsequently labeled as brain-damaged. To communicate with others, she would throw tantrums and scream. She could speak by three and a half years old with the help of speech therapy. A few years later at the age of five, Grandin was diagnosed with autism so her mother worked with her 30

There are a lot of people who live with autism, and by the time they are adults, are able to take care of themselves. “My autism is the reason I’m in college and successful. It’s the reason I’m in math and science. It’s the reason I care,” (Jacob Barnett). Jacob is a math and physics prodigy, and he lives with autism. All over the internet there are stories about people with autism living normal, or even extraordinary lives. People who work with them learn to accept their quirks and eventually realize that they can function just as well as anyone else. This is one example of someone who learned how to overcome the issues that autism presents, and go on to be something really special.

Most people think children with Autism will never be able to learn and function in normal society but in fact, children with autism have the ability to learn and improve their education and even their behavior which allows them to function as close if not equally in society. Depending on the level of the disease, most children diagnosed with autism still need assistance with living and job skills throughout their adulthood and later years. Most autistics are classified as “mentally retarded” but there are about 10 percent are considered “autistic savants.” (POV, 2013) A savant is defined as “someone who excels in a particular area.” (Riccio, 1999) An example of an autistic savant is someone who can play Beethoven sonata after only hearing it one time. Another great example is an autistic person can tell you if September 2, 1962 fell on a Saturday or Sunday. These examples are part of the autistic child’s brain function. Even though autistic children may seem mentally challenged they have great ability to stick to a particular motive and excel in that one

“Temple’s most important innovations in design were accomplished not in spite of but because of her autism”. Says Sy Montgomery, the author of “Temple Grandin: How the Girl Who Loved Cows Embraced Autism and Changed the World”. When someone has autism, it doesn’t mean they are dim-witted or different from everyone else. Temple Grandin inherited various special qualities which makes her extremely inspirational.

Autism has affected a lot of people and their families. Although autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can be seen as a negative condition to have, it can serve as something good for other things. One person who took advantage of her condition and experience is Temple Grandin. Temple Grandin is a professor of animal science at Colorado University. She is a consultant to the livestock industry on animal behavior and an autism spokesperson. Temple Grandin has contributed to the autism community by inventing the squeeze machine for people with autism. That machine provides deep pressure stimulation to calm people with autism since it reduces tension and anxiety. She used the machine herself for many years. Temple Grandin has also worked as a consultant

There is a person with autism and her name is Temple Grandin. Now you're probably saying why do I care, because she is the world's most knowledgeable person in livestock handling. Here is some of her history. She was born in August 29, 1947 (age 69 years), Boston, MA. She has been in one movie and this is the name of it, In the Woods, Speciesism: The Movie, ARTS: A Film About Possibilities, Disabilities & the Arts. Her parents are, Eustacia Cutler,and Richard Grandin. She got her education at Franklin Pierce University, Hampshire Country School, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, Arizona State University. She also works at Colorado state university. Also some of the things she influenced in the autistic people. She goes to places and

Cathedral by Raymond Carver and No face by JuntoDiaz have a lot of similarities and differences. These stories are based on spiritual belief and the main characters have a lot similarities based on their disability. The similarities and the differences have aspects which can be pointed out as they have similar themes. Both of the stories are really interesting and have perfect story line where we can learn and demonstrate how society discriminate people who have disability but on the other hand these stories also shows that people who have disabilities they are perfect in different ways which can be their extra sense of understanding everything or be motivated with your own imagination and create a new world. These qualities reflect that no one is

I have heard about Temple Grandin before she is autistic and figured out ways to make the cows less anxious when being slaughtered. It sounds like a bizarre field but to my understanding, she was absolutely brilliant at it because she viewed the world differently. How she views the world is just different and not abnormal, each of us views the world differently. Anyhow, her point is in this video is that autistic spectrum kids view the world differently and they are absolutely essential to our world today. Without these types of thinkers, we would not have engineers, scientists and many different types of people. She believes that we should cultivate these young minds and help them learn how to be the best they can be. I agree with her and

Imagine not picking up on social rules and cues, even as your peers are progressing rapidly. The way they act and speak to each other appears magical to you. Imagine having some days where you can hear but can’t understand what words are being said. Imagine being overwhelmed by every movement, noise, and smell one day, while craving that same stimulation the next day. Imagine having an extraordinary ability to see detail no one else can. Imagine finding divine pleasure in every little thing having to do with your favorite interests. What you’re imagining are just some of the experiences I live with day-to-day. I do have a disability but it also gives me unique abilities. Autism is a neurological and developmental disorder, affecting the entire brain structure and activity; though, I will mostly be discussing the physical consequences of this condition. The type of Autism I have is called Asperger’s Syndrome, but this is not my official diagnosis since the DSM now utilizes the umbrella-term Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Temple Grandin, a young autistic woman, is extraordinarily gifted. She has a remarkable connection to animals and a brilliant mind. This biopic follows Temple from her late teens -- as she struggles with both her own limitations and some narrow-mindedness in the communities around her -- to her startling first accomplishments. With the help of a supportive family and one progressive teacher, Temple tackles misconceptions about her condition, the sexism of mid-20th

According to the CDC, autism is “a developmental disability that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges (Facts About Autism, 2016)”. Autism was first discussed in 1943 by Dr. Leo Kanner, after he observed 11 children who had fixations on the inanimate environment rather than people (Quick Facts About Autism). It affects about one percent of the population, and is

Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Emily Dickinson, George Washington, Isaac Newton, and Thomas Jefferson are just a few of the most well known people who were speculated to have autism syndrome. (“Famous People Who Have or Had Asperger’s Syndrome”) Even though not proven, these people played a prodigious role in our history. Just because you have a disorder does not mean that you can not still be
