working memory

Students with ID have difficulty with (cognitive functioning)

working memory and short term memory

asperger syndrom is often misdiagnosed as having:

- OCD - ADHD

causes of prevalence

- brain damage/ dysfunction - heredity - experiential factors

Profound Level of ID

45.1%

what percent of individuals with autism react atypically to sensory stimulation

70-80%

affecting verbal & non verbal communication and social interaction; repetitive activities, resistance to change, unusual responses to sensory experiences

IDEA definition of autism

A scientific approach to designing, conducting, and evaluating instruction based on empirically verified principles describing functional relationships between events in the environment and behavior change

applied behavior analysis

is impairment in social areas, particularly an inability to understand how to interact with others.

asperger syndrome

when are individuals with ID identified at SEVERE/ PROFOUND level?

at birth or shortly after

teaching and use of academic and functional skills in student's natural environment

community-based instruction

two conditions occurring in the same individual

comorbidity

using language for speaking, reading writing; using number concepts

normalization

when are individuals with ID identified at MILD level?

not until they enter school; the second or third grade - when more academic work is required

IDEA characteristics of emotional disturbance

- inability to learn that can't be explained by intellectual, sensory, and health factors - inability to build/ maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers and teachers - inappropriate type of behaviors/feelings in normal settings - general pervasive mood/ unhappiness - tendency to develop physical symptoms/ fears associated w/ personal/ school problems

Problems with IQ Tests

- measures only how a child performs at one point at time - can change significantly - culturally biased - should never be sole basis for making diagnosis of ID - should be used to determine IEP objectives

3 used instruments to screen autism

- modified checklist for autism in toddlers - social communication questionnaire - autism spectrum screening questionare

children with phonemic awareness can:

- orally been sounds to make words - isolate sounds at beginning, middle, and ending of words - segment word into sounds - manipulate sounds within a word

ways to prevent ID

- rubella vaccine - ultrasounds - amniocentesis - genetic counseling - screening at birth

IQ Tests consist of:

- serious of questions - problem solving tasks - memory - other items that require certain degree of intelligence to answer/ solve correctly

Mild Level of ID

- skill acquired late -sufficient speech -independent self care at home -struggling with academic work -unskilled manual labour -live independently with minimal support

In regards to attention, how may this affect a student with ID?

- slower to attend to relevant features of a learning task -may focus on distracting stimuli - difficulty sustaining attention to learning tasks

Moderate level of ID

-slow acquisition of language -adults require some degree of support in community -may be able to read but with difficulties

What is the 3 required criteria for a diagnosis of ID?

1. Significantly subaverage intellectual functioning 2. significant difficulty with tasks of everyday living 3. must occur during the developmental period to be distinguished form other disabilities
