Dyslexia is a brain-based learning disability that causes issues with phonological processing, spelling, and rapid verbal responding. It affects around 80% of those labeled as learning disabled and can be inherited. Characteristics of dyslexia include difficulties with reading, spelling, writing, organization, and auditory processing. To help students with dyslexia, educators should provide outlines, use color-coding, allow extra time for tasks, encourage organizational skills, and support the development of reading, writing, and math skills.
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are neurological disorders characterized by impairments in social interaction and communication and restricted, repetitive behaviors. The document discusses the history and diagnostic criteria of ASDs including autism, Asperger's syndrome, Rett's disorder, childhood disintegrative disorder, and pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS). Key features of ASDs include difficulties with social skills, communication, and repetitive behaviors. Diagnosis involves assessing deficits in these areas that emerge before age 3.
Intellectual disability is characterized by deficits in cognitive ability and adaptive functioning that originate before age 18. It involves limitations in conceptual, social, and practical skills. The severity of intellectual disability can be mild, moderate, severe, or profound based on IQ scores. Causes include genetic syndromes, biological factors, medical conditions during pregnancy or birth, and psychosocial problems. Placement programs may include inclusion, individualized education, behavior therapy, and transition to adult services focusing on independent living skills and employment. Current research studies various approaches to improving academic engagement and quality of life for those with intellectual disability.
Persons with multiple disabilities have two or more serious disabilities that cause severe educational needs. They have complex instructional needs due to interactional effects of their disabilities. Multiple disabilities include cognitive, physical, sensory and health impairments requiring extensive supports. Accurate assessment is challenging due to limitations, so interviews regarding adaptive behaviors are more informative. Legislation requires public education and related services. Current trends favor inclusion with necessary supports when possible, though some controversy remains.
Communication is the process of expressing and receiving ideas through language, speech, and other means. Typical speech and language development follows predictable patterns through childhood. Speech disorders involve difficulties producing sounds, while language disorders involve challenges with comprehension, expression, or formulation of ideas. Communication disorders can be caused by brain injury, disease, lack of early stimulation, or other factors. Students with communication disorders are evaluated and teachers adapt instruction to support their needs through techniques like repetition, visual aids, and social skills training. Alternative communication systems can also help those unable to communicate verbally.
Dysgraphia is a neurological disorder that impairs written expression. It is characterized by illegible writing, difficulty with letter formation and sizing, and problems keeping letters on a line. Students with dysgraphia have trouble transferring visual information to fine motor skills required for writing. Accommodations include specialized pencil grips, handwriting programs, assistive technology like speech-to-text software, and extra time to complete written assignments. Effective interventions focus on both correcting handwriting through explicit instruction and bypassing writing through the use of computers.

Dr. Anjana Thadhani's presentation at Tata Learning Disability Forum (TDLF), 2013.
The Forum for Learning Disabilities centred on the theme ‘Learning Disabilities – a more inclusive perspective’. The forum this year included in its purview three additional Learning Disabilities (LD), namely Specific Learning Disability (SpLD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
In line with the TATA Group’s corporate sustainability endeavors, TIS initiated the Tata Learning Disability Forum (TLDF) in 2006 to ensure that students with special education needs receive the required attention as well as to spread awareness about LD which had been receiving scant attention in India. Since then, via the TLDF platform, TIS has been successful in generating an increased level of awareness and enabling progress in remediation activities for students with LD.
Dyslexia is a neurological condition that impairs a person's ability to read, write, and spell. It is caused by genetic anomalies in areas of the brain related to language processing. There are several proposed models to explain dyslexia, including a phonological model which argues dyslexics have an impaired ability to connect letters to sounds, preventing word identification and comprehension. Dyslexia is diagnosed through tests that evaluate a person's reading ability compared to their intelligence. Treatments focus on strengthening weaknesses, such as using multisensory techniques to help connect letters to sounds. There is no cure for dyslexia, but treatment plans involving specialized instruction can help dyslexic individuals learn compensatory strategies.

Educational needs for Children with EpilepsyA.J. Lawrence
In order to make well thought out decisions for children with epilepsy, it is necessary to acknowledge all objective data including scores from testing, observations, outside therapists, history, emotional and personality variables, family and school data. One must pay close attention to their child and look for early signs of epilepsy in order to address specific educational needs and prevent hindered development.
This document discusses assessment in special education. It defines assessment as collecting information about a student to make decisions, such as determining eligibility for special education services. Assessment methods can range from formal standardized tests to informal teacher observations and ratings scales. A multidisciplinary team works together using various assessment methods and considers federal disability categories under IDEA to determine a child's strengths and needs for an individualized education program.
This document summarizes the results of an online survey investigating the use of assessment materials in schools for pupils with Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties. The survey received responses from 11 schools. It found that while schools widely use assessment, it is not often for specific behavioral issues. Schools commonly assess academic abilities but seem to lack knowledge and confidence in administering behavioral assessments. The author concludes that rigorous behavioral assessment could help schools defend academic progress for these students. They plan to conduct further research on behavioral assessments and disseminate information to help schools.
The document discusses principles for assessing children's language learning. It recommends that assessment should be learning-centered and support the learning process. Assessment is more than just testing and should be interactive rather than isolated. Both children and parents need to understand the purpose of assessment. The document also outlines key concepts in assessment including formative and summative assessment, and discusses techniques for assessing young learners such as role-plays, presentations, and portfolios. It stresses the importance of providing helpful feedback to learners.
The document outlines the 7 step process for assessing students for potential learning disabilities:
1. An intake is conducted to gather background information and determine if assessment is appropriate.
2. If appropriate, testing is done to measure cognitive abilities such as verbal, visual, and working memory. The student must show average or above intelligence.
3. Achievement testing measures academic strengths in reading, writing, and math, and the student must show average achievement in at least one area.
4. Results are analyzed to identify any processing deficits and compare aptitude versus achievement.
5. If criteria are met, the student qualifies for learning disability services. Accommodations and strategies are discussed.
The document discusses learning disabilities, including how they are neurological processing problems that can interfere with basic skills like reading, writing and math, as well as higher level skills. It covers various classifications of learning disabilities, characteristics, causes, ages of identification, identification methods, teaching strategies and accommodations versus adaptations. Though there is no known cause of learning disabilities, the document outlines many techniques and strategies teachers can use to help students identified with learning disabilities acquire knowledge and skills and experience success.
A learning disability is a disorder that affects one or more basic psychological processes involved in understanding or using spoken or written language. It can cause difficulties with listening, thinking, reading, writing, spelling, or math calculations. Learning disabilities are intrinsic to the individual and presumed to be caused by central nervous system dysfunction. Children with learning disabilities may have problems with oral expression, listening comprehension, reading skills, reading comprehension, math calculations, or math reasoning. Educational programs for learning disabled children use behavioral, cognitive, medical, multisensory, and direct instruction approaches.

This document summarizes gait abnormalities in children with cerebral palsy. It begins by defining cerebral palsy and describing the three main types: spastic, dyskinetic, and ataxic. For each type, it outlines the characteristic neuromuscular deficits that affect gait. It then describes normal gait cycle and determinants. Key factors that influence gait in CP are weaknesses, shortened muscles, spasticity, and bone deformities from altered forces. Gait abnormalities range from mild toe-walking to severe crouched gait. Prognosis for walking depends on CP type, severity, and age of independent walking. Over time, walking ability tends to decline in adolescents and adults with CP

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
