ENG 105 Topic 6 DQ 1
Do some research to identify a trend, event, or a policy related to
ADHD. If you look on news websites, you can identify and discuss
what reporters are currently writing about ADHD. If you look at
the policy statements by institutions such as the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention
(http://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/adhd/facts.html) or American
Psychological Association (APA.org), you can identify and discuss
which policies or advice they provide. You could also try finding
events (either past events or future ones) about ADHD at the
local, state, or national level and then explain what one or more
events were (or will be) about. Then, summarize your findings and
report them to the class by responding to this discussion
question.
During the week, go back and review your classmates’ posts and
discuss similarities and differences between your response and
your peers’ responses.
, After making some research on trend related to children with
ADHD, I have noticed the need to have teachers well informed on
symptoms and behaviors with children with ADHD. There has
been a growing amount of diagnosis initially made by teachers
that have referred the child to School Based Therapy to continue
the diagnosis. With this happening very often, it is important that
teachers and school staff members are well educated on ADHD,
and how to cope with a child with such disorder at the same time
maintain class room management. The way that a teacher
interacts/reacts to the child with the disorder is very imperative
when it come to a child with ADHD being successful in the
academic world. Some teachers have a general idea of what
ADHD but a through education is needed in order for them to
have the tools need to initiate the diagnosis of ADH
The research I found was conducted by the Center for Disease
Control and the trend was on the prevalence of ADHD and the
treatments. The findings concluded that over 6 million children
were diagnosed with ADHD. Among children 2-17 years of age, 6
out of 10 were taking medication for their condition.
Furthermore, the research found that just under half of those
children were receiving behavioral therapy. Research also
discovered that children from rural areas were likely to have an
increase in diagnoses but less likely to receive behavioral therapy
compared to children living in larger areas (National prevalence of
ADHD and treatment, 2018) Children who do not have the
advantages of a wide scope of health care options are limited in
their resources and have no other choice than to take the
medication. Often times the school system has some intervention
strategies that can be of some assistance to the child, but these
strategies are only useful at school. Parents are helpless when
there are no other viable options.
