Strategies to improvise teacher tasking with ADHD children
2013
The purpose of the present article is to review the empirical support for teachers to provide strategies for tackling students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Three major aspects discussed are alarming rise of ADHD among students, entangling issues with teaching students with ADHD and unleashing strategies for tackling such children. Practical implications of the school based outcome literature will be delineated, including the need for the following: (a) technical-support mediated strategies; (b) classroom strategies; (c) activity-based strategies; (d) peer tutoring strategies; and (e) homework strategies. It is suggested on bridging the gap between the empirical literature and actual practices employed in schools. School-based professionals are urged to implement empirically supported strategies through individualizing interventions based on assessment data. Through long term implication of such evidence based strategies, it is hoped that the deficits characteristics of ADHD will be minimized and the likelihood of school success for these students optimized.
