  • ADHD diagnosis is on the rise
    ADHD is one of the most prevalent psychiatric illnesses of young people in America.  A recent study showed that ADHD diagnosis has gone up 43 percent from 2003 to 2011.  The study was not designed to look at the underlying reasons for such changes in prevalence, however it could be the result of a tendency to over-diagnose the situation. “There has definitely been an upward trend in diagnosed ADHD cases. If the condition is over-diagnosed and the stimulant to correct the condition is taken casually, then treatment won’t be durable and it could ignore other problems in their environment that are the actual stressors, like: internal worries, home conflicts and learning disorders.”  -Cabrera.

  • Legal Requirements for Identification of and Educational Services for Children With ADHD
    Two important federal mandates protect the rights of eligible children with ADHD-the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504). The regulations implementing these laws are 34 CFR sections 300 and 104, respectively, which require school districts to provide a "free appropriate public education" to students who meet their eligibility criteria. Although a child with ADHD may not be eligible for services under IDEA, he or she may meet the requirements of Section 504.

  • Signs of Adult ADHD
      Verbal Redirection: Many students with ADHD require frequent redirection.Redirect students using clear, concise, and inconspicuously delivered verbal cuesto remind students of desired behaviors, rather than long explanations. Corrective Feedback: Some students with ADHD require brief, simplecorrection for disruptive behaviors. Correction should be directed at the student’sbehavior, not the student (e.g., “No shout-outs. Please raise your hand beforeanswering the question” vs. “stop being disruptive!”). Provide the feedbackimmediately following the behavior. Provide correction in a calm manner and inclose proximity to the student (Piffner, 2011). Avoid humiliating the studentwhen correcting his behavior. Options for Students: When providing corrective feedback or redirecting thestudent, it is often helpful to provide the student with options. For example, “Sue,you can do the assignment now, during lunch, or after school.”

    What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).Image :  Video :  Embedded : URL : https://www.lipsum.com/special char " ¥table : SR no  Assignee  Task Sample one      numbering :  Number q Number 2 Number 3 Bullets :  Sample 1 sample 2 sample 3

    super admin edit 1 As a result of the behaviors listed above, students with ADHD are at greater risk of academicdifficulties, social/emotional issues, and limited educational outcomes. The degree to which attention impacts a student’s academic and social performance is related to the interactions between the student’s academic and behavioral needs and the environmentaldemands.    Therefore, it is not unusual for the student to perform differently across settings.  For example, a student with ADHD may experience academic success in elementary school;however, when he enters middle school, the increased academic and organizational demandsmay increase his need for additional academic and behavioral supports.
