How is 'theory of mind' related to 'educational sciences'?..?

This is the starting point of my assignment but the instructor told us to find a specific topic, such as lying and public relations, and then discuss it through 'theory of mind'(TOM)... I am out of topics!!! Need your ideas... By the way, TOM means having an understanding of that other people have different thoughts, beliefs and so on... Thanks already.

    people with Williams syndrom have a problem with their TOM. maybe you can write about them and how they can participate in normal educational programs.

    Autistics are said to possible lack a theory of mind. Yet, many of them are in the educational systems. How do you teach someone who looks at you as if you were a " thing "?
