In many cases individuals with learning disabilities will also experience related disorders that have an impact on their lives and successful pursuit of learning
I was unaware of how many different types of learning disabilities there are. Learning about each one and how to help those students is very helpful for my classroom.
As a parent of a child with learning disabilities this information has helped me to understand him more.
I learned the different types of learning disabilities and how to assess them in the classroom.
What I learned in this module is there isn't one specific assessment that can diagnose a learning disability. Instead, a full understanding comes from observation and building a profile of the student's learning behaviors and that recognizing learning challenges early allows for timely support and intervention, which significantly improves a child’s educational experience and outcomes.
Information regarding different types of learning disabilities and how they present themselves
I learned about the different ways the disabilities present themselves and what behaviors to look out for.
Great information on the different types of disabilities.
I learned about the different learning disabilities that exist and how to better understand the students in my classroom each day.
Often people with learning disabilities are great problem solvers.
The percentage of undiagnosed learning disabilities was confirmation of what I see around me in the adult learning space. I think I will use this information and preemptively before students come to class. Getting better prepared for both them and for the instructor is going to be key.
Comment on Brittany Behel's post:
Definitely agree.
This module described in detail the different types of learning disorders and methods on how to recognize them.
It was good to go over the different types of learning disorders and how to identify them.
Don't assume students are not wanting to learn
This module helped me to understand on a more granular level how various disabilities can impact student learning. This information will help me become more aware of potential areas where my students may struggle and need more support.
I was surprised to see that 30-50% of people with a learning disability also have ADD/ADHD.
I am going to use this to help some of my students get the proper support for their specific learning disabilities.
Very useful in my line of business. I work with those with disabilities. This really helped
This was so informational, and motivating to encourage more life skills.
