Περίληψη:This paper investigates alternative conceptions of force and gravity on students with autism. For this reason, a number of digital tasks were given to 3 secondary students with autism, aged 13-14 years old, who were recruited from an urban, national school in Greece.

This finding supports the concept of inclusion on teaching and learning science to pupils with autism.
