The document discusses low-incidence disabilities which affect less than 1% of students. It defines various low-incidence disabilities like deafness, blindness, deaf-blindness, traumatic brain injury, orthopedic impairments, and health impairments. For each disability, it describes characteristics, service delivery options, and teaching strategies. Common to all low-incidence disabilities is that they are difficult to serve due to lack of school knowledge and resources to support the students.

Designing With Visually Impaired People: NetSquared CambridgeNetSquared
Downloaded from http://www.meetup.com/Net2Camb/events/203431952/comments/421549912
People with little or no sight, like most other people with varied abilities, are typically treated as passive recipients of assistive technologies. This month we present an inspiring story from Nikiforos, Warren and Jerry, who have used the process of participatory design to let visually impaired people to take the driving seat and design their own technologies.
Nikiforos will talk about how he got together with Warren Wilson and Jerry Gilbert from Cam Sight to organise and run a hands-on prototyping Bootcamp aimed to inspire visually impaired young people to become active imaginers of how technology can shape their experience of the world.
Both Jerry and Warren will also be there to share their experiences of working with Nikiforos and of living incredible lives with visual impairments.
Come to this event if you want to challenge your assumptions about what people with little or no sight can and cannot do and human ability in general!
About our speakers:
Nikiforos Karamanis enjoys spending time with visually impaired people and learning from them. He volunteers for the RNIB and Cam Sight and is a champion of participatory design for people with little or no sight. Nikiforos recently joined the User Experience team at the European Bioinformatics Institute. Before that he worked as an independent consultant and as the UX Lead of SwiftKey. He has a background in Language Engineering and did research at Cambridge University and Trinity College Dublin on user-centered design and evaluation of novel technologies in a variety of settings.

Students with neurological problems may need special education services, adaptation of
physical facilities, knowledge of special equipment, use of technology, and modification of
curricular activities. Conditions such as TBI, cerebral palsy, and the like, have neurological
foundations that impact the students’ speech-language skills, and ultimately, academic
performance. Communication deficits may be part of another condition in which the student
has motor impairments, perceptual difficulties, cognitive deficits, behavioral problems, etc.
Problems may be subtle or highly noticeable.

CP – a disorder of voluntary movement and posture. No clear relationship (if any) between
the degree of motor impairment and degree of intellectual impairment

Cerebral palsy is often associated with other disabilities. It is not unusual to find children with
cerebral palsy who also have hearing or vision problems or who have intellectual
impairments. We know that all these conditions can adversely affect language.

Children with cerebral palsy are at significant risk for speech and language difficulties. The
speech difficulties of children with cerebral palsy are extremely heterogeneous and depend, to
a great extent, on the specific nature of the physical disability. Individuals with cerebral palsy
may have speech production difficulties in one or several areas, including respiration (e.g.,
rapid, shallow breathing), phonation (inadequate airflow), resonation (hypernasality), and
articulation. Articulation is often affected because of difficulty controlling the tongue, lips, or
mouth.
Differences in early development may have an impact on language. Studies of the interactions
between children with cerebral palsy and their parents has shown a pattern of conversational
dominance by parents and child passivity. Typically, parents have been reported to initiate
most conversational exchanges, introduce topics, ask many closed questions, and issue many
commands. Children tend to reply with limited information and fail to take a similar number
of turns, to initiate an equal number of exchanges, or to use a full range of pragmatic
functions. Children with cerebral palsy who have better speech intelligibility have been foun.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
1.4 modern child centered education - mahatma gandhi-2.pptx
Low incidence disabilities
1. Based on: Special Education for Today’s Teachers: An Introduction,
by Rosenberg, Westling, and McLeskey (second edition)
2. What are the definitions of various types of
low- incidence disabilities?
What are some of the characteristics of children
with these kinds of disabilities?
What service delivery options are typical for
children with low-incidence disabilities?
What accommodations or teaching strategies
are helpful for students with various types of
low-incidence disabilities?
3. Less than 1% of the school-aged population:
Deaf / Hearing Impaired
Blind/Low Vision
Deaf-Blind
Complex Health Issues
Severe Physical and Multiple Disabilities
All students with low-incidence disabilities experience one
commonality: they are difficult to serve because most
schools have little knowledge of how to best educate
them, of what technologies are available to assist them,
and of how to obtain appropriate support services from
outside agencies.
4. Hearing impairment, whether
permanent or fluctuating,
adversely affects a child’s
educational performance, but is
not included under the definition
of deafness.
Deafness is hearing impairment
so severe that the child is impaired
in processing linguistic
information through hearing, with
or without amplification, and that
adversely affects a child’s
educational performance.
5. Hearing loss ranges from mild to severe can be
described by degree, type, and configuration.
Rate of literacy development slowed (by 1/3) due
to delays in language development. Often
graduate with 4th grade reading level.
Lack opportunity to develop social skills from
incidental learning. Need explicit teaching.
Many deaf individuals choose membership in the
deaf community and culture.
6. Early intervention
School placement
42% spend most of the day in
general ed. class
31% educated in resource class
15% educated in residential
school
Regular ed. teacher collaborates
with teacher of students who are
deaf or hearing impaired.
7. Oral/aural - Use residual hearing to learn and
communicate with people verbally.
Speech reading - Perceive speech by watching mouth
movements, body language, and context cues.
Cued speech - Use 8 hand shapes in 4 different
placements along with mouth movements to
differentiate sounds of spoken language.
Manual - Use sign language (ASL). An interpreter
may assist in communicating with non-ASL speakers.
Total communication - Use a combination of sign
language and verbal communication.
8. Hearing aid
Cochlear Implant
FM system
Sound field system
Text telephones (TTY)
Closed TV captioning
Alerting devices
Cochlear Implant Listening Demos
9. Face the student when speaking
Get the student’s attention before speaking
Assess student’s background knowledge
Check for understanding
Use visual aids and experiential learning
Provide preferential seating
Reduce background noise
10. Vision impairment including
blindness means an impairment
in vision that, even with
correction, adversely affects a
child’s educational performance.
The term includes partial sight
and blindness.
Legally blind: 20/200 with
correction in best eye or visual
field of 20 degrees or less.
11.
12.
13.
14. Things appear washed out,
like looking at a faded
photograph.
Trouble differentiating
lightness and darkness or
things that are almost the
same color.
15. Limited ability to access information
Limited range of experiences
Limited orientation and mobility
Limited interactions with the
environment
Delayed language development
Slightly different motor development
sequence
Social isolation and/or delayed
development of social skills
16. Early intervention
School placement
87% spend at least part of the day in general ed.
13% educated in separate facilities
Resource classroom and residential setting not
common.
Regular ed. teacher collaborates with teacher of
students who are blind or visually impaired.
Anna's World
17. Tactile aids and manipulatives
Enlarged print
Low glare materials
Back lighting
Magnification devices
Braille
Optical character recognition
Screen reading software
Descriptive video service
18. Provide opportunities for tactile
exploration
Use concrete objects and
manipulatives
Give verbal descriptions of visual
information
Adjust lighting, colors, etc. as needed
to increase visibility of materials
Provide preferred seating
Adapt environment for mobility and
specialized equipment
19. Concomitant hearing and visual impairments, the
combination of which causes such severe
communication and other developmental and
educational needs that they cannot be accommodated
in special education programs solely for children
with deafness or children with blindness.
Many have some functional use of hearing and/or
vision. They may be able to:
Move around independently
Read enlarged print
Recognize familiar faces/voices
See sign language at close distances
Understand and develop some speech
20. About 63% have other disabilities
Cognitive disabilities are common
Slow pace of learning
Enjoy movement
Methodical
Need for sameness
Problems with:
Isolation
Communication
Mobility
21. Early intervention
Services similar to those for students with severe
intellectual and multiple disabilities.
15% educated in regular class or resources room
39% educated in separate special ed. classroom
46% educated in separate day or residential
school, hospital, home or other setting.
In Texas, each service center has a deaf-blind
specialist.
Multidisciplinary team approach
22. Visual or tactile sign
language
Voice and sign
Voice only (with
amplification)
Tactile symbols
Communication
devices
23. Multi-sensory teaching
Link movement to language
Coactive movement
Physical guidance
Brailling
24. Injury to the brain caused by external physical force,
resulting in total or partial functional disability or
psychosocial impairment, or both, that adversely affects a
child’s educational performance.
Open or closed head injuries resulting in impairments in
one or more areas: cognition, language, memory, attention,
reasoning, abstract thinking, judgment, problem-solving,
sensory, perceptual, and motor disabilities; psychosocial
behavior, physical functions, information processing and
speech.
Does not apply to brain injuries that are congenital,
degenerative, or to brain injuries induced by birth trauma.
25. Characteristics depend upon the severity and
location of the injury, as well as the age and general
health of the individual. TBI can cause changes in:
thinking and reasoning
understanding words
remembering things
paying attention
solving problems
talking
behaving
physical activities
seeing and/or hearing
learning
26. Multiple disabilities are concomitant impairments (e.g.,
mental retardation/blindness, mental retardation-
orthopedic impairment), the combination of which
causes such severe educational needs that they cannot be
accommodated in special education programs solely for
one of the impairments.
Also defined by TASH in terms of necessary support:
“individuals who require extensive ongoing support in
more than one major life activity… such as mobility,
communication, self-care, and learning...”
Usually have severe intellectual disability as well as at
least one other disability. Intellect may be higher than
estimated, as determining intelligence may be difficult.
27. Require a long time to learn
Have difficulty with:
Learning complex skills
Generalizing and discrimination
Observational/incidental learning
Attention
Memory
Skill synthesis
Self-regulation
Communication
Inappropriate behaviors
Medical problems
28. Early intervention, with family support
Served primarily in separate special ed. classes, either in
general ed. or separate schools.
Emphasis on a functional curriculum, developing skills
for independence and community participation
Only 12% spend most of their time in general ed.
Inclusion requires collaboration between regular and
special ed teachers, and usually paraprofessional help.
Reverse mainstreaming may be used to promote social
interaction with non-disabled peers.
29. Adaptive behavior scales, ecological
inventories, and curriculum guides
used to determine what to teach.
Teach skills as integrated clusters
within functional routines and
contexts.
Partial participation when learning a
complete skill independently is not
possible.
Systematic instruction (time delay,
system of least prompts) and data
collection.
30. A severe orthopedic impairment that
adversely affects educational
performance. Includes impairments
caused by congenital anomalies (e.g.,
club foot, absence of some member),
impairments caused by disease (e.g.,
polio, bone TB), and impairments
from other causes (cerebral palsy,
amputations, fractures or burns that
cause contractures).
31. Neurological disorder caused by brain damage
before, during or after birth that affects movement
and posture.
Non-progressive (brain damage does not worsen)
May be hypertonic (tense), hypotonic (floppy),
athetoid (involuntary movement), ataxic (lack of
balance and coordination) or mixed.
Affects different parts of the body (hemiplegic,
diplegic, quadriplegic)
Can be mild, moderate, or severe
May have other disabilities; 50-60% have intellectual
disabilities
32. Inherited muscle disorder in which muscle tissue
degenerates over time.
9 different types, vary by age of onset, muscles
affected, rate of degeneration, life expectancy, etc.
Duchenne is most common type (and is the one
described in the textbook):
Onset between 2-6 years
Occurs only in boys
Eventually affects all voluntary, heart, and breathing muscles
Usually die by age 30
Some types of MD have higher than average risk for
intellectual or learning disabilities
Fatigue affects school performance
33. An incomplete closure in the spinal column:
Occulta: opening in one or more vertebrae without
damage to spinal cord (40% of population)
Meningocele: protective covering of spinal cord pushed
out through opening in vertebrae
Myelomeningocele: spinal cord protrudes through the
back
May involve muscle weakness or paralysis, loss of
sensation, loss of bowel and bladder control below
place where incomplete closure occurs.
Fluid my build up in brain (hydrocephalus), which
may be controlled through a shunt. If so, there
may be problems with attention, language, and
academics.
May need multiple surgeries.
34. Having limited strength, vitality, or
alertness, including a heightened
alertness to environmental stimuli, that
results in limited alertness with respect to
the educational environment.
Due to chronic or acute health problems
such as asthma, ADHD, diabetes,
epilepsy, a heart condition, hemophilia,
lead poisoning, leukemia tuberculosis,
nephritis, rheumatic fever, and sickle cell
anemia.
Adversely affects a child’s educational
performance.
35. The most common OHI.
Signs include difficult breathing,
wheezing, coughing, excess mucus,
sweating, and chest constriction.
Can be triggered by allergies, cold,
dry air, or exercise.
Loss of instructional time and fewer
opportunities for social and
recreational activities.
Use inhaler to help with breathing
when an asthma attack occurs.
36. Epilepsy is a neurological
condition that makes people
prone to seizures (abnormal
electrical discharges in the
brain). The two most common
types of seizure are:
Tonic-clonic seizures
Absence seizures
Antiepileptic drugs can be use to
control seizures.
37. Conditions diagnosed by physician
and educational impact determined
by educational personnel.
Most children with OI and OHI are
served in general ed. classrooms.
Students may receive related
services (e.g., PT, OT).
School nurse develops “individual
health care plan” that includes
information about ongoing needs
and emergency medical treatment.
38. Curriculum modifications such as changes in content,
outcomes, or levels of complexity
Adaptations to the physical structure of the classroom
Accommodations (e.g., sending work home, tutoring)
to help students make up missed work
Pair students with limited stamina with another
student, give shorter assignments, more time to finish
Special considerations for physical and health care
needs (e.g., asthma triggers, universal precautions)
Facilitate acceptance to prevent teasing
Assistive technology devices
Collaboration with OT, PT, ST, nurse, parents, etc.
Editor's Notes
The first time you see a child having an asthma attack, it can be very frightening as you watch the child struggle to breathe. Deaths from Asthma among children are rare. Less than 200 children per year die from asthma - but, it is a possibility. Asthma deaths in adults are more commong - about 4,000 adult Americans die from asthma each year.
There are many other types of seizures - a person may fall to the ground as if having fainted. He or she may repeatedly do some action, such as pulling at his shirt. All seizures involved a temporary loss of control over one’s muscles or attention.
