Abstract

This perspective article explores the various advantages and disadvantages of using noise-cancelling headphones in educational settings for autistic students with auditory sensory differences. Although noise-cancelling headphones can have several advantages for autistic students in educational settings, it is important that use of such assistive technological tools should not be implemented without a plan and tailoring at an individual level.
