2-1 Discussion: ADD/ADHD and
the Classroom
Review the readings and resources from this module and address the
following:
In your post, discuss your thoughts on working with children or
adolescents with ADHD in the classroom setting. Should teachers be
trained to work with these students in a different manner compared to
children or adolescents without ADHD?
Thoroughly argue and defend your position by evaluating and applying
appropriate developmental theory and concepts with support from
module readings and other articles as you deem necessary. Keep in
mind DSM-5 criteria for ADHD and determine whether providing DSM-5
training to educators would better enable them to support students with
ADHD.
