Guest: Professor Dr Ratnawati Asraf, Professor, Faculty of Education, International Islamic University Malaysia
As a professor of education, Dr Ratnawati Asraf’s professional calling had never seemed more meaningful than when her own grandchildren were discovered to be neurodivergent. Terms like dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD and autism were no longer textbook concepts, but realities that changed the trajectories of her grandchildren and children’s lives. On this episode of Because Feelings Matter, she shares how her views as an educator and a grandparent converged in advocating for inclusive education for neurodivergent children.
