Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) is the most common behavioural disorder, affecting up to five per cent of children in the UK. This book provides a concise and comprehensive guide to educating children with AD/HD. It offers a theoretical introduction to AD/HD and practical guidance to the classroom teacher on how to support children with this condition.
The book is divided into three sections:
*
Part One focuses on the nature of AD/HD and its impact on the individual in school, as well as the ways in which it can be most accurately diagnosed
*
Part Two addresses the principles and practices of intervention, including specific educational interventions and behaviour management techniques
*
Part Three is structured around a series of case studies illustrating the nature of AD/HD and its relationship with other difficulties, and makes suggestions for school-based interventions.
The book is rooted in the experience of practitioners who work on a daily basis with children with AD/HD, and draws upon up-to-date research evidence on the topic. The authors challenge crude assumptions about AD/HD and argue that the best way to understand AD/HD is as a condition in which biological and environmental factors interact.
Suitable for use as a teaching manual and a training resource,
Educating Children with AD/HD will help teachers, other educational workers and students develop a sense of empowerment in relation to AD/HD.
