Guided Response:
Imagine you are no longer a new teacher, but rather are now mentoring a new teacher. The teacher you are mentoring has come to you asking for advice because a parent of a child who was recently diagnosed with ASD has come to her asking for suggestions on how she can support her child at home.
Respond to your peer with support for this parent by including the following tips:
1. What recommendations can be provided to this parent with regards to helping the child academically as well as socially?
2. What resources are available to support this parent?
3. Lastly, how should the classroom teacher support this parent through communication?
PEER 1
IDEA disability category with the reauthorization of IDEA in 1990. IDEA 2004 defines autism as a developmental disability in which a child has problems communicating, verbally and nonverbally, to a degree that affects academic performance. It states that these communicative and social difficulties usually arise before the age of 3 years, and are often accompanied by repetitive movements or behaviors, resistance to change, and atypical responses to sensory experiences.
Communication Social Skills Repetitive or obsessive behaviors.
Misuses Pronouns Blurts out Collects things.
Speaks in short sentences Displays a lack of personal space Covers ears. Arches back.
Struggles to whisper Talks a lot about one topic. Participates in repetitive play
A grammatical structure which may appear immature (i.e., telegraphic speech, improper tense or use of pronouns) or grammatical structure which may appear pedantic (e.g., monologue, advanced vocabulary in an area of interest). Auditory input sensitivities are covering ears during loud noises Their working memory or the time it takes to process information, especially processing several pieces of information at one time, can be difficult for people with ASD. Some have high word recognition skills, but poor comprehension, others have high calculation skills, but poor applied math problem skills and a proportion are low in all areas. (Pratt, Hopf & Larriba-Quest, 2017)
PEER 2
ASD is a learning or pervasive developmental disorder with symptoms including difficulty with communication, social skills, and repetitive behavior. Individuals with ASD are categorized into levels—Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3—based on their challenges with communication, social skills, and repetitive behaviors.
Students with
autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
experience difficulty with communication, social skills, and repetitive behavior (Goldstein, Naglieri, Rzepa, & Williams, 2012). These students often struggle with changes to their routines or environment. They may have unusual sensory .
Dyslexia in the Digital Age: IntroductionEva Gyarmathy
Assuming, but accepting without great joy that technological tools have rendered all of our hitherto most important cultural skills acquired at school unnecessary, new methods will need to be designed which can develop the analytical-logical-sequencing mode of information processing in children in lieu of reading, writing and counting. Failing this might mean that an important element of human thinking could be lost forever.
The role of psychology and pedagogy is not simply to transfer the provision for dyslexic people into everyday education by utilizing methods appropriate for this age and culture. This is
only the first step which automatically leads us to the real challenge.
Methods and tools need to be designed which can develop those important cognitive
abilities that could not undergo appropriate development with the potential decrease in the importance of reading, writing and counting.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Definition today:
A specific learning disability that is neurobiological
in origin, characterized by difficulties in accurate
or fluent word recognition, spelling and decoding
abilities despite higher cognitive abilities and
effective classroom experience, where comorbidity
in other academic or cognitive areas such as
attention, arithematic and self-expression is
common (Reid, Shaywitz & Shaywitz, 2003)

15. Implications
1) increase efforts of instilling awareness
of dyslexia in Malaysia
2) educate the public about the
nature, limitation as well as the potential
of individuals with dyslexia
3) rectify the education system that
marginalizes the educational opportunities
of dyslexics.
16. Conclusion
This research has only uncovered the
tip of the iceberg of experiences faced
by dyslexics in Malaysia.
More research needs to be done to
understand their life experiences
better.
