Learning to Teach Students With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Training Experiences for Teachers

Daniela-Maria Cretu (University “Lucian Blaga” of Sibiu, Romania)

Source Title: Handbook of Research on Student-Centered Strategies in Online Adult Learning Environments

DOI: 10.4018/978-1-5225-5085-3.ch015

Abstract

The presence of special needs students in regular classrooms makes it difficult for teachers to manage the situation, especially since in Romania the initial teacher-training curriculum doesn't include a class addressing the issue. This chapter talks about the teaching, learning, and evaluation experiences offered by an instructional unit on the subject of ADHD for over 700 primary and secondary school teachers from all areas of expertise. The purpose of this unit was to increase the teachers' knowledge and understanding of students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in an educational frame. This chapter presents content elements, learning, and assessment activities that the participants proposed and implemented during the work sessions: both face to face and online. The authors mention that this training experience was part of a larger project called “e-Mentor: Developing ITC Skills and Educational Mentor-ship of Disabled Persons, for Teachers” implemented by “Lucian Blaga” University of Sibiu.
