What type of learning is affected by intellectual disability.pdf
- 1. WHAT TYPE OF LEARNING IS AFFECTED BY INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY?
- 2. INTELLECTUAL IMPAIRMENT, OFTEN KNOWN AS COGNITIVE DISABILITY, IS A DISORDER THAT INTERFERES WITH A PERSON'S COGNITIVE FUNCTIONING AND ADAPTIVE BEHAVIOUR. THIS IMPLIES THAT PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES MAY STRUGGLE TO LEARN AND ACQUIRE NEW SKILLS. INTELLECTUAL IMPAIRMENT CAN INFLUENCE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LEARNING IN DIFFERENT PEOPLE. THOSE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES MAY STRUGGLE WITH ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL SKILLS IN GENERAL.
- 3. ACADEMIC LEARNING IS A SUBSTANTIAL OBSTACLE FOR THOSE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES. LEARNING BASIC READING AND NUMERACY SKILLS, AS WELL AS MORE ADVANCED IDEAS LIKE CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM-SOLVING, ARE ALL PART OF THIS. THOSE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES MAY ALSO SUFFER WITH MEMORY AND KNOWLEDGE RETENTION, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO LEARN NEW SUBJECTS OR RECALL PREVIOUSLY TAUGHT MATERIAL.
- 4. ANOTHER AREA THAT IS FREQUENTLY IMPACTED BY INTELLECTUAL IMPAIRMENT IS SOCIAL LEARNING. INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES MAY STRUGGLE WITH SOCIAL SKILLS SUCH AS COMMUNICATION AND INTERPERSONAL INTERACTIONS. THEY MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY READING SOCIAL SIGNS, COMPREHENDING EMOTIONS, AND SUCCESSFULLY EXPRESSING THEMSELVES. THIS MIGHT CAUSE SOCIAL ISOLATION AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DEVELOP MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEERS.
- 5. THANKFULLY, PERSONS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES CAN BENEFIT MUCH FROM OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY FOCUSES ON ASSISTING PATIENTS IN DEVELOPING THE SKILLS REQUIRED TO UNDERTAKE DAILY TASKS SUCH AS SELF-CARE, EMPLOYMENT, AND LEISURE. OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS CAN ASSIST PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES GAIN THE ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL SKILLS THEY NEED TO THRIVE IN SCHOOL AND IN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE.
- 6. IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE HAS AN INTELLECTUAL HANDICAP, SEEKING THE ASSISTANCE OF AN OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST MIGHT BE A USEFUL RESOURCE. THE BEST OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IN SHARJAH AND RAS AL KHAIMAH SPECIALISE IN DEALING WITH PEOPLE WHO HAVE INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES.

THE LIFEWAY REHABILITATION CENTER PROVIDES A VARIETY OF OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PROGRAMMES TO ASSIST PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES IN DEVELOPING THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN SCHOOL AND IN THEIR DAILY LIFE.
- 7. FINALLY, INTELLECTUAL IMPAIRMENT CAN HAVE AN IMPACT ON BOTH ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL LEARNING. INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES CAN BENEFIT FROM OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IN RAS AL KHAIMAH BECAUSE IT CAN HELP THEM DEVELOP THE SKILLS NEEDED TO CONDUCT EVERYDAY TASKS AND ACHIEVE IN SCHOOL AND IN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE. IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE HAS AN INTELLECTUAL HANDICAP AND LIVES IN SHARJAH OR RAS AL KHAIMAH, OBTAINING THE ASSISTANCE OF AN OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST AT LIFEWAY REHABILITATION CENTER OR OTHER TOP OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY CLINICS CAN BE A HELPFUL STEP TOWARDS IMPROVING OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE.
