As I began my career in the world of education, I
discovered that teaching was not about how smart a
student was. It
was about how well a student could focus and behave
in class. I
wanted to find a way to reach every student, even
the "Challenging"
ones.
Too often students are labeled as difficult when
they are simply
misunderstood. The culprit may be Attention
Deficit. Whether
diagnosed or not. Attention issues affect millions,
and can cause a
multitude of disruptions in the learning
environment. Teachers
must be armed with tools to cope with and reach
these students.
Educators need to understand ADHD and its
implications within the
classroom. They must remain flexible enough to
adapt teaching
techniques, workload modification and discipline
policies to
effectively educate ADHD students.
ADHD students are prime candidates for low self-
esteem. Teachers
must strive to make each student feel important and
become a
successful member of society. The ultimate
objective of this
research is to find the most effective techniques to
teach Attention
Deficit students while maintaining a cohesive
teaching environment.
