About the Course

This course will provide an overview of ADHD diagnosis and treatment. Course participants can expect to learn about ADHD as a developmental disorder that begins early in childhood, and participants will also learn about evidence-based approaches for diagnosing ADHD. Following that, two evidence-based treatment approaches (the Daily Report Card and Parenting Strategies) will be introduced. (Note these course activities are informational and are not intended to replace working with a licensed/trained professional). Learning Objectives: Students will be able to identify the behaviors characteristic of ADHD, the components of a diagnosis, and evidence-based treatment procedures that can be used in the school or home. 1. Identify the key areas of functional impairment, symptom presentation, and diagnostic decision-making for youth with ADHD. 2. Develop a behavioral intervention suitable for treating ADHD in the school setting. 3. Apply effective parenting and teaching strategies for supporting youth with ADHD in the home, classroom, and neighborhood....

Participating in this course has been a motivation for me because I am currently preparing my self for jobs in schools for children who have this kind of similar situation (ADHD). Thank you Coursera.

Very easy to follow and informative course. Learned some things that I didn't know even though I have two children with ADHD. Would definitely recommend to parents who are wondering what they can do.

Decent course. Though I think it's helpful to know how ADHD is diagnosed, and the defining characteristics, I'm not sure if 2/4 weeks needed to cover these areas. I suppose it's good information to have, if you are unfamiliar with ADHD, or are new to the classroom. I found Week 3 the most helpful -- this was the module focusing on Daily Report Cards. Week 4 was targeted towards parents, but the strateies discussed in this module could certainly be applied to classroom use.

Overall, the course was a pretty basic introduction to working with students with ADHD. At times, it seemed to be directed towards educators, and at other times, it was directed towards parents. The strategies mentioned were likely things you've already used in the classroom, or have learned about in your SPED courses.

A good refresher, though.

Instructor was very nice but not a good person to do a presentation. His delivery was lacking in quality. He made alot of verbal mistakes and has a lazy speech pattern that made it difficult to understand his pronounciations. His voice would lower towards the end of sentences making it difficult to hear/understand. I would have liked more in depth video presentation regarding training strategies rather than so much given outside readings.

I think its a good course for parents and school teachers, includes basic , must know information for people who work/live with children with ADHD . I had higher expectations ( to get to know more detailed information about strategies and intervention process on professional level). Assessment of daily impairment sheet is good to use and thanks for sharing those materials.

Aun no lo he finalizado, pero tengo la sensación que el curso aborda muy poco sobre el TDAH. He aprendido cosas pero me gustaría que fuera un poco más extenso y con material más detallado ayudando de esta forma a conocer más sobre los niños con TDAH y como poder ayudarles al 100% si es que se puede al 100%
