ow does rambunctious behavior in a child differ from behavior seen in a child with ADHD of the combined type?
“Challenges in Childhood Learning”
Let’s consider: Read Chapter 13, pages 381-419 in preparation for this week’s discussion.
Have you seen the movie Temple Grandin? Dr. Grandin’s story is a fascinating and inspiring one. She is now a successful adult who has lived with autism all of her life and who grew up in an era when little was known about how to “treat” the disorder or help educate the learner. You may want to view this week’s movie moment about Temple Grandin in preparation for this discussion question.
There are two videos there. One is a full lecture; the other is a shorter interview. There is also a recent movie, now available on DVD that has been made with actress Claire Danes playing the role of Temple. I highly recommend the movie especially if you have a child with a learning disability.
Let’s discuss: In your initial post, consider and answer these questions:
How does rambunctious behavior in a child differ from behavior seen in a child with ADHD of the combined type?
Are any symptoms of ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, or conduct disorder perhaps “normal” for kids?
Would you punish a misbehaving child who has a developmental disorder such as Aspergers or autism the same as you would as a “normal” functioning child with misbehavior?
Dr. Grandin talks about the kind of discipline she received as a child in her talks. What do you think?
** Be sure to use in-text citations and cite at least one additional resource besides your textbook in your initial post. Don’t forget to type your resource citations at the end of your post as well.

Identify at least 2 barriers to accessing telehealthIn a population.
telehealth.docx
Applying evidence to improve complex systems of health care for diverse populations at a community health facility. You have noticed a trend in which there is a high rate of patients who dont show up for their appointments. Despite making reminder calls the day before, patients are still missing their appointments. During your problem-solving efforts, you begin to investigate more closely and discover that a large portion of the patients lack access to transportation. As a result, many have missed their appointments, which meant they havent updated their physician on important changes in their health, havent been able to get directions on adjusting their medications based on the changes, etc.
You have determined that telehealth would be a good solution to this problem so people who have difficulty coming to the clinic in person can still have access to care.

Scenario:As a third-year teacher, you have become increasingly involved in community events, such as volunteering in a soup kitchen. Recently, a member of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Rodriguez, invited you to give a talk to local business leaders about the benefits for everyone when businesses create a culture that helps families work and care well for their children. During your talk, you decide to present a poster that outlines the benefits of family-friendly policies for businesses. Mr. Rodriguez mentions that some of the business owners in town are particularly concerned about parents who lose time at work when their children are home sick. He asks you for your ideas on how businesses can respond in a proactive way to families who need child care assistance. Losing parents as workers because they feel they must choose between their child and their employer is another issue, according to Mr. Rodriguez. Focus Assignment 1. Create a poster, either by hand and then scanned in or by using digital tools. On your poster, highlight three to four key benefits for businesses when they adopt family-friendly policy policies for their employees. Next, list three to four policies businesses can adopt to help parents reduce stress and continue to be productive when their children need to miss school due to illness. Last, list one to two big ideas that would help relieve parental anxieties about feeling the need to choose between their child and their livelihood.
