Description of the students I would desire to teach
I desire to teach students in elementary school between the ages of 5 to 1 0 years, the study will highlight on how to manage behavior of children suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder. There have been various guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on how to diagnose and evaluate Attention Deficit Disorder for children between 4- 18 years. Attention deficit affects the way children interact with their peers and perform in class. Children with ADHD have difficulty paying attention in class and have hyperactivity tendencies. Thus, the rationale for choosing this group of students is that the students fall under the special education services in IDEA, and can be assisted through the instructional strategies employed. Identifying students with special needs is a critical, as there is a disproportionate representation of minorities in special education a possible pointer to identification problems of students with emotional and behavior problems (Skiba, 2013).
Instructional strategies
Video-based interventions are increasingly being adopted to monitor and change the behavior of students with both behavioral and emotional problems. Equally, using mindfulness based stress reduction is another strategy to improve on student behavior. The VBIs provide an opportunity to monitor the behavior of fellow students or student’s own behavior with a view of altering the behavior, and incorporates a wide variety of technologies including computers and smart phones. Because the strategy uses monitoring to model appropriate behavior, it offers a positive instructional approach that enables students to view their own behavior (Goodwyn et al., 2013).
The main advantage of working with VBIs is that one can work with pupils who are less reluctant learners. VBIs can be categorized as either Video modeling (VB) or video feedback (VF), with VB involving emulating a model presented in the video (Goodwyn et al.,2013). In essence, this strategy ensures that ADHD students can monitor their progress, while assessing their behavior recorded in video-based technologies. Since the activities are more recreational then the students are motivated to participate in observing their behavior. Nonetheless, the strategies involved in VBIs do not always yield positive results especially for students who are socially awkward. Students, who shy away from social interaction, may become attached to using technology, rather than focusing on social interaction as a way to improve in their social skills.
Mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) is an emerging technique that seeks to improve the coping mechanisms for people with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). According to Solar (2013), approximately 25% of students with emotional and behavioral skills also have poor social skills. Similarly, students with EBD may beco...
