    An acute health condition would cause temporary limitations in classroom participation and educational progress, while a chronic condition would require long-term services and support. Teachers need knowledge of various physical impairments, assistive technology, teaching strategies, accommodations and modifications. ADHD is not classified as a separate disability under IDEA because it impacts all areas of learning rather than being isolated to one area. The visibility of a physical disability can affect a child's self-perception, social development and independence depending on the environment.

    Intro to Special Education & Inclusion

    Week 11 Discussion Questions

    11/16/21

    1. How might the effects of an acute health condition on a student's classroom participation and
    educational progress differ from those of a chronic condition?

     Many conditions and diseases can significantly affect a child’s health and ability to function
    successfully in school
     Most physical disabilities and health impairments that result in a child receiving special
    education services are chronic conditions, meaning they are long lasting or permanent
     A child with a chronic condition is likely to require long-term services of appropriately
    intensive supports
     Acute conditions may be severe and debilitating; however, they are typically short term
    pneumonia
     A child who has an acute condition may have limited participation and educational progress,
    but only temporarily
     Acute illness may need remediation to help the child catch up
    2. What does a classroom teacher need to know about physical disabilities and health impairments
    in children?
     Teachers should have knowledge of physical impairments, assistive technology, teaching
    strategies, and necessary accommodations and modifications
     Teachers will find a general knowledge of various conditions and how they affect children
    helpful
     Assistive technology can level the effects of these impairments by allowing students to
    participate in classroom activities more easily and independently
     Specific classroom and instructional strategies, as well as accommodations and
    modifications, also assist students in achieving their best individual educational outcomes

    3. Why do you think ADHD is not included as a separate disability category in IDEA?

     ADHD is one of those conditions which directly impacts learning, yet fails to meet the
    criteria to be classified as a learning disability under federal guidelines
     Those affected by this disorder have a hard time controlling their behavior and paying
    attention
     ADHD does not meet the federal definition of learning disability because it impacts all areas
    of learning and all cognitive functions rather than any isolated one
     Is a medical condition and must therefore be diagnosed by medical professionals rather
    than school system personnel

    4. How might the visibility of a physical disability or health impairment affect a child's self-
    perception, social development, and level of independence across different environments?
     How children think about themselves and the degree to which others accept them are often
    affected by the visibility of their condition
     Some children use a variety of orthopedic appliances that make their physical impairments
    more noticeable and make the child with disabilities look even more different from their
    classmates without disabilities
     The visibility of some disabilities may cause others to underestimate the child’s abilities and
    limit their participation opportunities
     By contrast, many health conditions that are not as visible may decrease the inclination of
    others to provide the student with needed special education services

    5. What are some of the problems that members of transdisciplinary teams for students with
    physical disabilities and multiple health needs must guard against?

     Members of transdisciplinary teams must guard against anything that interferes with open
    communication with one another
     No other group of exceptional children comes into contact, both in and out of school, with
    as many different teachers, physicians, therapists, and other specialists
     Because the medical, educational, therapeutic, vocational, and social needs to the

    6. Of the many ways that the physical environment, social environment, and instruction can be
    modified to support the inclusion of students with physical disabilities, health impairments and
    ADHD, which are most important?

     Teachers who teach children with physical and health impairments often adapt equipment,
    schedules, or settings so that their students can participate more fully in educational and
    recreational activities
     These issues revolve around determining the extent to which teachers and schools should
    realistically be expected to care for students with physical and health-related disabilities.
     Concerning the safety of all students must be made
     The most important classroom modification is creating an atmosphere so that the student
    with disabilities feels socially accepted and comfortable enough to learn and contribute
