TOP REVIEWS FROM MANAGING ADHD, AUTISM, LEARNING DISABILITIES, AND CONCUSSION IN SCHOOL
Well-made course, however not challenging, and very basic. 1 week per topic does not make you an expert, but gives an idea of signs to look out for as a teacher or other person dealing with children.
as an occupational therapist, this help me review the basics of ADHD, Autism, learning disorder as well as concussion injuries. I know this would help me a lot in my practice.
Easy and enjoyable course suitable for people with no background in the area. recommended for people working with children especially teachers and student counselors
Very good grounding for school based staff. One or two spelling errors and one of the test questions had ADHD substituted for LAI but otherwise great!
