PostPrimer text from the College of William & Mary. https://education.wm.edu/centers/ttac/documents/packets/adhd.pdf Many students with ADHD have significant difficulties with organization. They are more likely to respond positively when teachers establish class routines and set procedures and maintain a well-organized learning environment. Clear rules and advanced planning are keys to success for teachers of students with ADHD. The following organizational supports are particularly useful. Students should be taught to use these tools through teacher modeling and guided practice with feedback before being expected to use them more independently. Assignment Notebook: Provide the student with an assignment notebook to help organize homework and seatwork. Color-Coded Folders: Provide the student with color-coded folders to help organize assignments for different academic subjects.By: Vijaya Super adminTuesday, Nov 26, 2024EDUCATION

PostSchool interventions should include a team approach across multiple settings, consisting of both preventive and intervention strategies. Interventions must be based upon assessment data that includes information about the student’s strengths and needs as well as the environmental conditions in which her characteristics of ADHD occur. Progress monitoring and strategy adjustments are critical to the success of any intervention plan (Wolraich & DuPaul, 2010).By: Vijaya Super adminFriday, Nov 8, 2024YOUTH EMPOWERMENT

ArticleOrganizational Supports for ADHD Students - ADDEDAs 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.By: Vijaya Super adminFriday, Nov 8, 2024WATER, ENERGY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT+1

OpportunityThe 5 steps of the iterative process, The iterative process can help you during the lifecycle of a p1. Planning and requirements During this step in the iterative process, you will define your project plan and align on your overall project objectives. This is the stage where you will outline any hard requirements—things that must happen in order for your project to succeed. Without this step, you run the risk of iterating but not hitting your goals. 2. Analysis and design During this step, you and your team will focus on the business needs and technical requirements of your project. If step one was the process of outlining your goals, step two is when you brainstorm a design that will help you ultimately hit those goals. Manage Agile teams with Asana 3. Implementation During the third step, your team will create the first iteration of your project deliverable. This iteration will be informed by your analysis and design, and should work to hit your ultimate project objective. The level of detail and time you spend on this iteration will depend on the project. 4. Testing Now that you have an iteration, you will test it in whatever way makes the most sense. If you’re working on an improvement to a web page, for example, you might want to A/B test it against your current web page. If you’re creating a new product or feature, consider doing usability testing with a set of potential customers. In addition to testing, you should also check in with your project stakeholders. Ask them to weigh in on the iteration, and provide any feedback. Read: What is the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle? 5. Evaluation and review After testing, your team will evaluate the success of the iteration and align on anything that needs to change. Does this iteration achieve your project objectives? Why, or why not? If something needs to change, you can restart the iterative process by going back to step two to create the next iteration. Keep in mind that your initial planning and goals should remain the same for all iterations. Continue building upon the previous iteration until you get to a deliverable you’re happy with. If you restart the iterative process, make sure everyone is still aligned on your project goals. The iterative process can take weeks or months, depending on how many iterations you run through. Centering your iteration on your project objectives every time you restart the iterative process can help you ensure you don't lose track of your north star.By: Vijayalaxmi Santosh MhetreThursday, Nov 7, 2024AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS+3

ArticleWhat is a non-iterative process ? non-iterative process, you and your team would work togethernon-iterative process, you and your team would work together to come up with a final product without necessarily trying new ideas along the way. Typically, non-iterative processes require more time during the conceptualization and creation phase, so that everything works as intended during the testing phase. Waterfall is the most common non-iterative process. In the waterfall model, you and your team will define project phases before the project starts. Each phase begins once a previous phase is completed in its entirety. Requirements and resources will typically be locked before a project begins, and the team avoids changing the project plan as much as possible. For example, imagine you’re working with a design agency to create an ebook. You first need to provide all of the copy for the ebook. Then, the design agency will take that copy and create designs. Finally, your internal team will copyedit the designed ebook to make sure everything looks ok. This is an example of the waterfall model because each phase relies on the previous step (i.e. you can’t copyedit the designed ebook until it’s been designed). Depending on the team you’re on and the type of projects you run, non-iterative processes can be challenging because they don’t build in time for your team to iterate and continuously improve. Because there are so many unknowns and surprises in engineering, engineering teams in particular tend to use iterative processes instead of non-iterative ones, but any team can benefit.By: Vijayalaxmi Santosh MhetreThursday, Nov 7, 2024AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS+5

ArticleWhy is keyboard accessibility important?Keyboard accessibility is one of the most important aspects of web accessibility. Not all users navigate the page with the mouse or a trackpad; some users only rely on keyboard to navigate. Many users with motor disabilities rely on a keyboard. Assistive technology users will also typically use a keyboard for navigation. In addition to traditional keyboards, some users may use modified keyboards or other hardware that mimics the functionality of a keyboard. Moreover, ensuring keyboard focus, tab order and no keyboard traps is important for the following reasons: Keyboard focus will primarily allow sighted users to know which element from the webpage has focus. If keyboard focus is not present or is difficult to visually see, it becomes a barrier to a user and makes it difficult to access information through a keyboard. Keyboard tab order allows users to properly navigate the page. If the tab order is incorrect and instead starts on the top of the page and then directs the user to the bottom of the page, users will have missed the content in-between those two sections or the user will be forced to use the “tab” key numerous of times before they reach their destination. Keyboard traps prevent the user from navigating further in the page. A user may be forced to perform various workarounds to access the information or may be completely blocked from navigating through the entire webpage again. back to topBy: Vijayalaxmi Santosh MhetreWednesday, Nov 6, 2024AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS+5

PostThe iterative process is the practice of building, refining, and improving a project, product, or initiative. Teams that use the iterative development process create, test, and revise until they’re satisfied with the end result. You can think of an iterative process as a trial-and-error methodology that brings your project closer to its end goal. Iterative processes are a fundamental part of lean methodologies and Agile project management—but these processes can be implemented by any team, not just Agile ones. During the iterative process, you will continually improve your design, product, or project until you and your team are satisfied with the final project deliverable.By: Vijayalaxmi Santosh MhetreMonday, Nov 4, 2024AGRI-FOOD SYSTEMS
