Life Gets Interesting When we Fail.

Did this get your attention? It did mine when I saw it in the subject of an email from Ted Talks. It got my attention for a couple of reasons I think:

First, because I don't normally associate "failure" with "interesting" ...and especially not when that failure is connected to my life! Most of us would call failure a "set back", an embarrassing loss, a sign we aren't meant to do it, depleting, or disheartening - wouldn't we? That's the tempting first reaction to feelings of failure. It is a fear response.

After that first "yeah right" reaction to the juxtaposition of the words, "life' "fail" "interesting, my second reaction was CURIOUSITY - I felt an inner daring to peek out from my first reaction and to look at this a little closer.

My third reaction was "Boy is that right on!"

These three responses probably occurred in about a third of a second as I came to land on the third response and that "something potent here" inner feeling that I've learned to follow.

Oddly enough, I deal daily in failure everyday. You could say I specialize in fear of failure. I don't mean that I am a failure -- although I've experienced plenty of what most would call failure. In truth, I've rarely seen my failures as, well, "failures" - and so my intrigue with this one line that came into my email box today.

In my unusual vocation as a spiritual teacher and guide, I work with people every day who come to me searching for help, seeking healing, clarity, and renewed direction ...Renewed direction from what?

...Most would say they are seeking solutions to situations and circumstances in life that are making them feel stuck, fearful or failed: stuck in a destructive lifestyle; fearful of remaining lost, depressed, and going around in circles; wounded from a sense of failed love in marriage, parenting, or inability for self-acceptance.

Here are two of the three words: failed life. When we feel we are lost or not living in a way that brings joy, peace, passion and meaningful purpose, we often start to become depressed. Why? We know we are missing something our heart longs for... but we don't know how to get it (or are too afraid of what we'd have to give up to get there - if we got there! We feel we are failing at our life in some way.In short, we are feeling a (perhaps unconscious) fear of failure -- even though we might very well cloak it in different language.

No one I know calls me and says "gosh I'm failing my life and isn't this just so interesting?

Yet that is exactly true! When we feel most afraid, stuck, and confused -- like we are missing the boat in our life -- is exactly when we are being invited to meet up with a new opening and growth in our life... if we but knew how to set about finding and following this trail of an inner wisdom we may doubt we have...

But listen to this: The completing words to the quote at the top of the article:

"Life gets interesting when we fail ...because it means we have just surpassed ourselves!"

It means we have surpassed ourselves! It means we have already stepped past the old self in some manner (realized or not) and are in the midst of a newly emerging self! Now that is very very interesting! It's, in fact, just what we have been seeking and asking for through our feelings of stuck, fear, fail - a new lease on life!

Stuck, Fear, Failure are interesting words because they herald the emergent path of transformation, self-growth, breakthrough, insight and revelation! Those are very exciting words and very adventurous places to walk through and to experience! This emergent call of change, are the places that bring bounce back to the step, sparkle into the eye, laughter bubbling up from the heart, passionate hope for the adventure of living. Who doesn't want that?

CALL TO ACTION:

1) As suggested in a recent Ted Talk by scientist Regina Dugan, ask yourself this question: "What would you try if you knew that you could not fail?

2) Really take time with this intriguing question. Take time to see and to daydream about what it would feel like to achieve that thing you would do in life if you knew you could not fail. What would it look like? What would you feel like? Spend a few days letting that daydreamy feeling seep in.

3) Then look at some area in your life where you feel stuck, fearful, or that you have failed. Get a piece of paper out and draw a starting point in the middle of a the paper and then draw a spiral circling out to the edge of the paper - as many turns as you like. (Don't read ahead

4) Now choose a place to mark 8 more circles all along the spiral at various places you choose (they can be any place you decide to put them).

5) Now add 21 more little X marks along the spiral (again anywhere you feel drawn to put them),

6) Next find one circle or X that calls your attention right now (not the first 2 or the last 2 along the spiral, but any others are OK to select).

7) Now think of one challenging situation in your current life right now (some place where you feel a sense of confusion, angst, doubt or fear) Got it?

8) Go back to that place you selected a moment ago (in #6) and let that mark stand for this current situation in your life.

9) Take a moment to connect all the circles and then to connect all the X's -- and simply notice the pattern against the spiral. Then appreciate that each circle and each X stands for a life crossroad or significant place of challenge and/or growth. Notice how some repeat along the spiral; notice any patterns that stand out for you (even if only an "odd" memory or thought).

10) Reflect back on the quote and this article and look over your spiral of life once more. Look at the journey from the outer edge (representing birth or new or external) as it circles in closer and closer to the center of the spiral (representing your "authentic self, centered self, inner truth". See if you can appreciate each of the circles and X's that lead you to your center; how each difficulty was a passage leading you closer to your Self. You might play with the circles standing for the change/outcome/growth and the X's the hurtles that lead you there. (there are many creative ways to play with this drawing, please feel free to explore them).

11) Finally, simply sit with this concept and your paper - see if you can See inside your heart that: Everything that has happened in your life - everything up to this exact moment -- was necessary to bring you to this precise place in your life (it had to, or you wouldn't be in this exact place!) This exact place - this moment in your life that all other moments have brought you to -- is indeed very interesting. It is very interesting because (now as I hope you realize) this moment's situation, whatever it is, is a sign. If you are feeling fear, stuck, failure or uncertainty, it is the sign that you have already started to surpass your former self - that you are making, or about to make, another turn inward on your spiral of life.

Stuck. Fear. Failure. Each is a signpost that your life has become too small for your soul; that your own life is seeking to grow and to become more embodied and authentically you.

Moments of seeming failure are signs that you are on your true Way: where stuck transforms into curiosity; failure transforms into creative insight and breakthrough; and fear transforms into self-love and humility.

Bon Voyage!

Is Your Child Struggling to Read? Symptoms of Dyslexia in Children

Is your child struggling to read? If your child isn't keeping up with his classmates in terms of reading or writing then he may have some kind of learning difficulty.

Could he be dyslexic? There's a chance that he is if he's displaying any of the following symptoms of dyslexia in children.

Dyslexic children are often bright and intelligent with a high IQ but are often labelled "lazy" or "stupid" by their peers and teachers may think that they aren't trying or that they have behavioural problems so they don't receive the help that they need. As a result the child himself thinks he's stupid and develops low self-esteem. He tries to hide his weaknesses by misbehaving or daydreaming in class and becomes frustrated easily when faced with reading, writing or mathematical tasks. In general, such a child will be:

• unable to read, write or spell at a level considered to be normal for his age

• not able to complete written tests although he may do well orally

• good at non-academic subjects such as music, art, drama, business, woodworking, design or engineering

• able to learn more effectively by demonstration and visual aids

• able to count but will have problems with counting objects or money

• unable to do sums without using his fingers or other such aids; he will come up with the right answer to simple sums in this way but won't be able to put the workings down on paper and won't be able to progress to higher maths or algebra

Specifically, the child will read haltingly, leaving out words or substituting different words, reversing letters or numbers or even words and will understand little of what he's read. Letters, words, numbers and explanations may cause confusion and spelling will be inconsistent. There are also some physical manifestations such as:

• headache, dizziness or stomach ache while reading or a feeling that a fictional something is moving and causing distraction

• vision problems although an eye test reveals nothing

• very keen sight and observational skills or poor peripheral vision

• hearing things not audible to others

• speech problems including mispronunciations, transposition of syllables, words and phrases and stuttering when stressed

• being ambidextrous

• repeated ear infections

• a sensitivity to food additives or chemicals

Other symptoms of dyslexia in children concern motor skills and may include:

• writing difficulties often because of an unusual way of holding a pencil; writing may be inconsistent or illegible

• clumsiness and a lack of co-ordination, not good at ball sports or team games, difficulties carrying out simple tasks that require a degree of motor skills

• a confusion between left and right or over and under

In addition, a dyslexic child may have problems telling the time, managing time or learning or remember sequences, facts or information that he hasn't personally experienced but will probably have a good long-term memory for people, places and experiences.

Behaviour and development can be an accurate indicator that a child has dyslexia and shouldn't be confused with normal childish behaviour. Behaviour can be compulsive or obsessive and could be at either end of the spectrum such as:

• tidiness or untidiness

• too noisy or too quiet in class

Development can be either very early or very late when it comes to crawling, walking and talking and the child may be a very light or deep sleeper or may continue to wet the bed long after it is normal to do so.

The child may have a very high or low pain threshold and may be sensitive emotionally.

Any of these symptoms of dyslexia in children will appear to a greater degree if the child is confused, stressed, under pressure of any kind or in poor health.

If your child is displaying any of these behaviours or traits, do get him tested for dyslexia right away so that the appropriate education can be started before the symptoms become worse or eventually unmanageable.

Speechtree Aac App Helping Children With Autism Learn And Communicate

SpeechTree AAC App is the new augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and learning program that is creating tremendous buzz throughout the special needs community. SpeechTree recently concluded a promotion with Smart Apps for Kids attracting over 4,840 entries for a chance to win the new AAC app. Additionally, numerous comments from parents and professionals indicate the enormous interest for an AAC app that can simplify the AAC learning process for beginning and emerging communicators including individuals with autism who are non-verbal, and others with limited language and communication skills.

A lot of people have begun to purchase both iPads and AAC apps - recognizing its potential, but seemingly lacking the needed guidance to begin teaching.

SpeechTree AAC Section

"I found many parents purchasing AAC apps but not understanding how to introduce or use them. For many beginning communicators at early stages in their development, AAC can be a very challenging process to learn. Many have unique learning needs that require lots of practice, encouragement, support, and instruction. That is how I realized the great potential to create an evidence-based app that could simplify this process and allow parents and educators to actively participate and monitor progress and areas that require further growth." Angela Desideri M.S.,CCC-SLP, internationally recognized speech language pathologist, AAC expert, and co-creator of SpeechTree.

SpeechTree's learning section includes 20 different lessons that incorporate ABA, evidence based principles, and comprehensive data collection. The lessons follow a systematic process that make it easy to monitor progress and continue working on areas that require further growth. Once AAC users have mastered a lesson, they can begin expanding language to 2 -3 words phrases, sentences and beyond in the SpeechTree AAC section.

Take for example Samantha. She is an 8 year non verbal girl with Autism. Her father, James, has been actively working with her using an iPad and SpeechTree AAC app.

SpeechTree Learning & Data Section

"SpeechTree has done wonders for Samantha's communication skills," says James. "The data has been so important because it has allowed us to focus more on Samantha's strengths and try to expand language using these strengths. SpeechTree gave us a place to start with the AAC process."

"My passion is to teach parents evidence-based strategies to use apps in the home environment. I am currently working on several projects to accomplish this next step," says Angela. The creation of SpeechTree application is only the first step in her plans to provide the needed guidance for parents and teachers to begin and expand upon the teaching process.

The Causes and Treatment of Children's Learning Disabilities in Reading

Learning disabilities in reading are just one of those generically described as learning difficulties, which can result in someone having problems learning specific skills. These are usually any or all of reading, writing, speaking, listening, reasoning and doing sums.

The causes of children's learning disabilities in reading are largely unknown but in some way the child's brain has been affected in such a way that its ability to collect and handle information is impaired. This in turn, may have been caused by:

1. Heredity - Learning disabilities are often inherited even if a generation has been skipped. Check whether other members of the family have had reading difficulties in the past.

2. Problems During Pregnancy and Birth - Learning disabilities can be the result of irregularities in brain development caused by the mother being ill, having an accident such as a fall, drinking, smoking or taking drugs during pregnancy. Equally, a prolonged labour, oxygen deprivation during birth or premature birth can result in abnormality in brain development.

3. Accidents After Birth - Learning disabilities can result from head injuries. For example the child being dropped or falling over, undernourishment or exposure to toxins such as pesticides.

Regardless of the cause, treatment of children's learning disabilities in reading is essential as soon as possible after discovery and this could take the form of any or all of the following.

1. Special Education - Special education is probably the commonest treatment for learning difficulties. Speciality teachers will evaluate the level of the child's problems as compared with their academic and intellectual potential. These teachers will then, basically, teach the child to learn by building on their strengths while correcting their weaknesses.

2. Speech and Language Therapy - Some learning disabilities in reading stem from difficulties hearing and speaking so appropriate therapies may be needed.

3. Medication - If a child's problems reading stem from attention deficit disorder then medication may be effective in improving concentration and attention span.

If you're not satisfied with the progress your child is making, following any or all of the above treatments then you could take some action yourself.

1. Employ a private tutor who specialises in helping children with reading difficulties.

2. Buy and online phonics based reading course which your child can do at home with your help. These programs are designed to be taken at whatever pace your child wants and they hold interest by using child-friendly cartoon characters to lead the child through the lessons. The lessons are short enough to hold the child's interest and they initially teach the relationship between how a sound looks and how it sounds. The courses progress from sounds to whole words and sentences and in addition to improving reading skills, the child will learn keyboard skills.

Orton-Gillingham Method - an Approach to Teach Learning Disabled People

The Orton-Gillingham Method is a sequential, structured, multisensory cumulative and cognitive approach for language learning. Three methods used by the Orton-Gillingham training method includes visual, auditory and kinaesthetic. These methods are used to teach people who have difficulty with reading, spelling, and writing.

How these learning approaches get the name Orton-Gillingham?

The approach was developed by Dr. Samuel Orton and Dr. Anna Gillingham. Samuel was an American physician and was interested in the study of learning disabilities. He became famous with his work on the causes and methods of dyslexia treatment.

While he was working as a pathologist in Massachusetts, he started working with patients who had brain damage. By spending time with the patients he studied a lot about their general behavior, their weakness and the difficulties faced by them in the course of their life. From the studies he came to know that they have great difficulty with learning languages and reading. It is this observation that led him to study more about why some children with apparently intact neurological functioning had similar issues with language processing and reading. Through the study he came to a conclusion that individuals with brain damage have failed to establish an appropriate cerebral organization to support the association of visual words with their spoken forms.

Later, he started working with psychologist Anna Gillingham. She helped Samuel Orton to design and publish instructional materials useful for people with brain damage. The instructional material contains the 44 sounds of the English alphabet and morphemes, including prefixes and suffixes and some common rules that should be followed with certain patterns and syllable types. This instructional method helped students with difficulty in learning languages to apply skills of decoding to memorize words which are non-phonetic. Her instruction manual when combined with Orton's notion of multi-sensory instruction came to know by the name Orton-Gillingham Method for reading instruction.

Today the Orton-Gillingham Method is used as an effective remedy for those with the language processing disorder known as dyslexia. What makes the method of instruction popular is the way in which simple to more complex phonetic concepts and syllable patterns are presented in a multi-sensory fashion. This helps learners to make progress and experience success with its full potential.

Which are the different Orton-Gillingham methods?

Language-based method - In this approach there is a special technique to study and learn languages. This approach helps in understanding the human language, the mechanisms involved in learning and the language learning process.

Multisensory - This is an action oriented approach. Here learning is based on audio, visual, and kinesthetic elements. The student can learn spelling along with reading.

Structured, Sequential, Cumulative - This is a systematic approach to language learning. Using these method students learns to read and write by blending sounds into words. The instructors address vocabulary, sentence structure, composition, and reading comprehension in a similar structured and cumulative manner.

Cognitive - This method helps students to learn the language and its history. Along with learning they are taught how to apply the knowledge for achieving reading and writing competencies.

Eblcoaching endows special multi sensory research based techniques of teaching for students with learning disabilities. They have various New York special education schools to assist disabled children in understanding and remembering.

Education to Special Children in General Schools

Special schools that have been set up in the past, for them provisions have been made for integrated education. Children studying in these schools who are afflicted with hearing impairment, visual impairment and locomotors disabilities are asked to follow a specialized curriculum that can meet their specific educational needs. At the same time efforts are being made to put it in line with the general education curriculum, so that in future, those children who are migrated to mainstream schools are able to adapt well.

Over the time, there has been change in the school of thought and growing awareness with which people have realized that instead of working outside the mainstream classrooms, the special schools can work with, and provide support to, regular schools. The education of disabled people in India has been recognized as an integral part of the educational system; therefore, the policies and programs adopted in recent years have been in accordance with this belief. However, more developmental changes are required to make special and general education come closer.

Inclusive Schools Can Bring Difference

Special schools and educators are like guiding lights that have helped disabled persons to break out into the world and embark on the path of self-realization and self-expression. With the change in time, it is hoped that inclusive schools will trigger off the process that will help disabled persons merge into mainstream life and empower them to be integral part of it.

Inclusive education must be sighted as a rational step towards evolution of special education for persons with disability. On the contrary, special schools and special educators should try to strengthen the inclusion efforts by helping mainstream schools in addressing the special needs and challenges posed by the presence of disabled children. This could be the most positive development that will bridge gap between special children and others. This will be to a win -win situation for all.

Some the known organizations of India - National Association for the Blind, Action for Ability Development and Inclusion (AADI, formerly Spastic Society of Northern India), Vidya Sagar and few others have reorganized their set ups and are aggressively working for the same. They have realigned themselves with mainstream schools, helping them with inputs like training of teachers, provision of learning material, curriculum adaptation, support in the classroom, evaluation process, development of teaching aids, etc. This emerging partnership appears to be heading in the right direction and promises a great deal of changes.

The Dangers of Ignoring Reading Difficulty in Children

Many children struggle a little when they start to learn to read but time and good teaching helps them to overcome those initial difficulties. However, if by half way through his first year, your child can't recognize around one hundred common, short words then he may be experiencing difficulties. Don't disregard the signs as the dangers of ignoring reading difficulty in children can be traumatic and far reaching.

Embarrassment and Frustration

Reading difficulty in children brings out all sorts of emotions; embarrassment because they look foolish in front of their class mates and frustration because no matter how hard they try, they just can't get the words out and reading aloud in class becomes a trial.

School children being what they are, children with reading problems will be teased and even bullied by their class mates, and may end up in trouble by trying to fight the bullies.

Teachers and parents of these children see an apparently intelligent child who doesn't seem to be trying to learn to read, so they are labelled "lazy" or "careless" or "stupid". This adds to the child's frustrations because he is trying so hard, but he just can't live up to adults' expectations.

Anxiety and Anger

Children with reading problems can become anxious and withdrawn if nobody recognizes that they have a genuine difficulty. Because these children expect to fail, they will become anxious when faced with a new situation which involves participation in school work.

Reading difficulties can also lead to an unstable temperament. Teachers and parents think the child isn't trying, class mates think he's stupid and he can do nothing about it, so he becomes angry and starts to lash out at those closest to him such as parents or siblings.

Self-Esteem

A child who is unable to read properly will have difficulties with any other school work which requires reading. As he gets older there will be more and more subjects which require reading skills, such as history and geography to name but two.

A child with normal reading abilities will develop his own self-image during his school years and in general, it will be a positive one leading him to believe that all things are possible and that the world is his oyster.

Children with reading problems will begin to feel inferior to their school mates and siblings who can read fluently. Constant failure will lead to feelings of low self-esteem and a reluctance to make an effort because doing so doesn't make any difference. Their view of the future will be a dim one and they won't expect to succeed in life.

The Consequences

The dangers of ignoring reading difficulty in children can result in any or all of the above emotions for the children, and many of them fail to complete school because it seems so pointless, and of those who do graduate from high school very few go on to further education.

If you suspect that your child is having difficulty reading, do seek help while he's young and don't let him develop into a frustrated and angry adult

The Need For Special Education

Children with learning disabilities find it very hard to study with other children at school. They need special attention from a tutor if they are to grow up into capable people. Children with any kind of disability, whether it is physical or mental, are subject to rants at school and find it very difficult to adapt to an environment where they are always mocked. Their learning capacity may further decline if they are not treated at a young age. Special education can help such children learn effectively and realize their dreams when they grow up.

Although it is not mandatory to enroll a special child into a special learning center, inclusion can deliver several benefits to the child. Firstly, the child will have a setting ideal to process knowledge. Education provides the same as a regular classrooms where other similar children will also be in attendance. The inclusive setting allows special children to use the normal education curriculum, meaning that they will receive the kind of specific learning offered at any regular school for children without disabilities. The center includes staff who give special education, and the parents of special children can expect their children to learn and develop their own individual skills through this form of curriculum.

Children who you enroll into special education centers will receive district as well as state testing to make sure that they are learning efficiently. Their test results will help in determining whether they are processing the education effectively, or if they are in need of extra help. Copies of all the state and district-wide testing results are maintained to make sure that they check you child's progress.

When children take part in special education classes, they will also have access to kids without disabilities, helping them acquire the right social skills. Whether or not a child is disabled, he/she deserves the education that will help them move forward in life. Special education classes help children with disabilities to a great extent so that they can grow up and lead a perfectly normal life just like anyone else.

Special education centers also give your child with all the supplementary services and aids they may need. It could be anything - individual assistants, classroom assistants, shorter tests, and assignments. These services and aids can help your child develop the skills necessary to succeed in regular educational environments. Understanding the special needs of your child can help in transforming him/her into a fully capable adult, opening the door to several opportunities in life.

When faced with issues involving special education or disability medical care, finding the right resources online can be difficult. It is important to discuss your options and solutions with your doctor, before searching online for answers regarding your child's early education and condition. Rate this Article

Common Learning Disabilities

There are a lot of students who either have or develop different learning disabilities throughout their educational career. This could mean they have dealt with it since elementary or grade school, or they didn't have it until they went to college. Either way, it can still make getting an education difficult and can affect the grades they get. However, a lot of these disorders and disabilities are very common and although some may prove to be more of a challenge than others, they are still possible to work with and accommodate.

One of the most common types is attention deficit disorder, ADD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ADHD. This condition normally affects the attention span of students and can make it difficult to concentrate during lectures, tests, and assignments. There are ways to treat this medically with a prescription from a doctor. However, many students find ways to work through their disorder without medication. Students with ADD or ADHD should take frequent breaks while studying or working on an assignment, and find a way to relieve built up stress or tension. Find a place where you can study in peace and won't be tempted or distracted easily. This may mean instead of studying in your room, study at the kitchen table, or go to the library. Talk to your teacher or school about if they have any policies to accommodate those with ADD or ADHD.

Dyslexia is more common than some people think. Dyslexia is a condition that results in lower reading levels and sometimes lower writing levels. The condition is a result of the way the brain's processes and translates written words and languages. People who suffer from this disorder can't simply cure themselves of it, but can reduce its affects through tutoring and taking remedial classes. Students may need to take extra time on tests, quizzes, and certain assignments. You can check with your college's student disability office for more information about different accommodations and options you have.

Sensory Processing Disorder, SPD, can prove to be quite difficult, but not impossible to work with. People with this disorder find they have troubles processing one or more of the five senses. The information that is picked up by a certain sensory process like hearing may be processed in a way that doesn't make sense to the brain which causes confusion and stress. It is still possible to work around this condition. You can talk to your doctor about how to treat, help, or reduce the issues that may be associated with this disorder. Schools and colleges are supposed to offer aid to students with learning disabilities so they can still get an education.

There are a lot of different types of learning disorders and disabilities. However, many people who suffer from them have found away to either work with or around the problem so they can get an education and a degree. There are so many different ways that people learn and process information, which is why there are different ways to study, take notes, and even attend classes. Some students choose to attend traditional classes and colleges so they can either get more help with their disabilities or because it is the best way for them to learn. Others opt to take their classes online because they can spend more time on their assignments. Everyone can get an education, no matter what disorder or condition they may have.

Does Your Child Have a Learning Disability?

While every parent wants to believe the best about their children, sometimes it becomes difficult to ignore the issues they are having in school. When kids struggle with their schoolwork and are significantly behind the rest of their class in important subjects like reading and math there is a possibility that they might have an education learning disability. This type of problem is not necessarily related to disorders like ADD or autism although children with these disorders may have difficulty learning in their classes. A learning disability is a separate type of problem that can be diagnosed by a professional if you are concerned that this might be the case. Unfortunately many children who struggle in school are written off as being unmotivated or having behavior problems when that is not the case.

If you find that your child is having trouble learning basic skills in spite of trying their best and simply cannot grasp certain things in their classes then you can get help for them. After being diagnosed with an education learning disability, they will be able to get special care for their problems in school. They may get moved to a different class or maybe get tutoring that caters toward their problem to help them learn at their own pace and do their best without being left behind by all the other students. It is important that their teacher understands the situation with the child and can give them a little leeway when it comes to keeping up with the rest of the class.

Having a learning disability does not necessarily mean the child will not succeed in school; they simply need some extra help to get through the subjects they struggle with the most. Although school can be especially difficult for them to handle, making sure they succeed is the best way to help your child overcome their disability. You should always believe in your child's abilities and want they can achieve but also take into account that they might have special circumstances that need attention in order to keep up with everyone else. Your support is an important part of their overall success in school and ultimately in life.

Increasing their information base will be highly needy upon their ease of sign language, because all other educational subjects will be corresponded in this manner.Teach deaf kids in the minimum-limiting atmosphere possible. About a few years back, more than 80 percent of all deaf kids were educated in special schools. From that time, government programs have been put into practice to put together deaf kids into the public school system, having enough money them to contact with hearing kids as much as possible.Put the names of the deaf children down into a mainstream or full addition set of courses that allow them to work together with children who can hear during non-educational activities, such as physical education and dine periods.Inform the parents of deaf kids about all of the alternatives offered to teach their kids. Put stress on the point that a mainstream or full inclusion curriculum may be more of a knowledge challenge at first, but amalgamations into a hearing populace train the students for life. In fact, certain chances, like scholarships and fiscal grants, may be obtainable.Make use of latest technologies when you teach a deaf kid. Teach the kids to make use of computers and to find the way with the help of Internet for further study. By keeping deaf kids well-versed about hi-tech advances, you can widen up their chance base.

Education to Special Children in General Schools

Special schools that have been set up in the past, for them provisions have been made for integrated education. Children studying in these schools who are afflicted with hearing impairment, visual impairment and locomotors disabilities are asked to follow a specialized curriculum that can meet their specific educational needs. At the same time efforts are being made to put it in line with the general education curriculum, so that in future, those children who are migrated to mainstream schools are able to adapt well.

Over the time, there has been change in the school of thought and growing awareness with which people have realized that instead of working outside the mainstream classrooms, the special schools can work with, and provide support to, regular schools. The education of disabled people in India has been recognized as an integral part of the educational system; therefore, the policies and programs adopted in recent years have been in accordance with this belief. However, more developmental changes are required to make special and general education come closer.

Inclusive Schools Can Bring Difference

Special schools and educators are like guiding lights that have helped disabled persons to break out into the world and embark on the path of self-realization and self-expression. With the change in time, it is hoped that inclusive schools will trigger off the process that will help disabled persons merge into mainstream life and empower them to be integral part of it.

Inclusive education must be sighted as a rational step towards evolution of special education for persons with disability. On the contrary, special schools and special educators should try to strengthen the inclusion efforts by helping mainstream schools in addressing the special needs and challenges posed by the presence of disabled children. This could be the most positive development that will bridge gap between special children and others. This will be to a win -win situation for all.

Some the known organizations of India - National Association for the Blind, Action for Ability Development and Inclusion (AADI, formerly Spastic Society of Northern India), Vidya Sagar and few others have reorganized their set ups and are aggressively working for the same. They have realigned themselves with mainstream schools, helping them with inputs like training of teachers, provision of learning material, curriculum adaptation, support in the classroom, evaluation process, development of teaching aids, etc. This emerging partnership appears to be heading in the right direction and promises a great deal of changes.

The Need For Special Education

Children with learning disabilities find it very hard to study with other children at school. They need special attention from a tutor if they are to grow up into capable people. Children with any kind of disability, whether it is physical or mental, are subject to rants at school and find it very difficult to adapt to an environment where they are always mocked. Their learning capacity may further decline if they are not treated at a young age. Special education can help such children learn effectively and realize their dreams when they grow up.

Although it is not mandatory to enroll a special child into a special learning center, inclusion can deliver several benefits to the child. Firstly, the child will have a setting ideal to process knowledge. Education provides the same as a regular classrooms where other similar children will also be in attendance. The inclusive setting allows special children to use the normal education curriculum, meaning that they will receive the kind of specific learning offered at any regular school for children without disabilities. The center includes staff who give special education, and the parents of special children can expect their children to learn and develop their own individual skills through this form of curriculum.

Children who you enroll into special education centers will receive district as well as state testing to make sure that they are learning efficiently. Their test results will help in determining whether they are processing the education effectively, or if they are in need of extra help. Copies of all the state and district-wide testing results are maintained to make sure that they check you child's progress.

When children take part in special education classes, they will also have access to kids without disabilities, helping them acquire the right social skills. Whether or not a child is disabled, he/she deserves the education that will help them move forward in life. Special education classes help children with disabilities to a great extent so that they can grow up and lead a perfectly normal life just like anyone else.

Special education centers also give your child with all the supplementary services and aids they may need. It could be anything - individual assistants, classroom assistants, shorter tests, and assignments. These services and aids can help your child develop the skills necessary to succeed in regular educational environments. Understanding the special needs of your child can help in transforming him/her into a fully capable adult, opening the door to several opportunities in life.

When faced with issues involving special education or disability medical care, finding the right resources online can be difficult. It is important to discuss your options and solutions with your doctor, before searching online for answers regarding your child's early education and condition. Rate this Article
