I think teachers should learn about the disorder, know the symptoms and know how to keep the students engaged

I think accommodations can be as simple as being understanding can go a long way. This can be seen as extending due dates, allowing open seating, and allowing students to have fidgets/allow them to fidget. Personally, I often struggle sitting in one place for a long time and I need a fidget (can be as simple as drawing on paper) in order to actually listen and focus. I think having a discussion with individual students and seeing what they feel like they need would be the most effective.

I do believe that there should be more improvement in services, because lots of schools honestly fail to give any supports when it comes to therapists and such.

There should be more therapist and more nurses/ medical help because teachers can always learn to corporate with each other which can be very helpful to students

I think emotional services in schools are essential in ensuring student well-being, I think many schools often lack promoting these services, and are only offered to students that are vocally struggling. I think this should be broadened and available to any student who feels like they need them.

I definitely think there needs to be improvement in specialized teachers, because in my old high school there weren’t many teachers who worked with children that needed more care.

I have a younger sister with an IEP and it helped her a lot growing up because she has trouble learning within the general education. She’s doing much better in class as of today.

I would try to make my curriculum to be as open and broad to allow many accommodations to be made for students that need them. I would also try to do check-ins very often with the students and their guardians to make sure the IEP's are being met and are effective

Personally, as a future educator, I will try to educate myself to accommodate to these students,  and I will try to read their background to acknowledge their needs, I do believe teachers should be given these practices for extra help and support on both ends.

I have seen how an IEP benefits a family member's education. He was able to learn in the classroom and how to integrate into society. As a future educator, I believe my job is to help students succeed, regardless of their needs. I will make it my goal to understand and adapt to their needs. To check for the reliability of the IEP I would look toward the improvement of students. Are they excelling? Are these students learning? Are they engaged? I would ask myself these questions to evaluate the IEPs effectiveness.

Working in the SPED department in a high school, I've been exposed to a lot of IEP's. However, to benefit the student I believe that IEP's should be shared with paraprofessionals. There have been soo many cases where I have been put on a student that I have zero history with and know nothing about. How am I supposed to help this student if I know nothing about them or their needs?

I actually have a friend that had an IEP though out elementary and high school. Their IEP helped them get though schooling very well. I remember their grade improved a lot though out our years in school and the team would also support her a lot with class. As a future educator I really want to try my best to have knowledge on how to accommodate the students and also get to know them to know exactly what I can do to help each student.

I do feel that there is room for improvement as in both of my schools, there was limited medical help as there wasn't enough funding or available nurses. There were no therapist and there is limited help for those with issues

Based on what you have learned and your personal experiences in the past, from your perspective, what do you feel are the best ways to assist a child with ADHD that you may have in your future class to help them succeed (specific accommodations, modifications, adaptations, etc.)? Why?

Do you know anyone in your family and/or social group who has an IEP? If so, how has such plan benefited their education/academic life? As a future educator, how will you manage to adapt to a child's academic needs and do so in means of the curriculum? What strategies will you use to check for the reliability of the IEP in terms of it being beneficial for a child?

Based on your learning/personal experiences do you think there needs to be an improvement in medical, social and educational services for students with learning disabilities? (Such as having more access to trained teachers, psychologists, therapists)? Or for students in general? Why?
