...Casual Factors of an EBD Student: Implications and Possible Mitigation MCP Grand Canyon University: SPE 513 3-19-12 To have success in the development of interventions and preventions of EBD, we must be able to identify and understand the cause of Emotional and Behavioral Disorder (EBD). Research has not shown just one factor or cause of EBD but there are many factors that are casual risk factors that seem to go on. These risk factors can be external or internal. The external factors are school, family, culture. The internal would be biological. These risk factors effect children differently because of their developmental stage. All of these factors whether it is external or internal increase the risk of emotional and behavioral problems. If a child is exposed to many of these factors then this is when the EBD behaviors will show it’s self whether in school, biologically, or family. Many students with EBD display learning and behavioral problems that make teaching them effectively in instruction difficult (Kauffman, 2005). When a student is in a class where the instruction is not being effectively instructed, an EBD student will tend to make much less academically then their peers. The EBD student may have a deficits of learning and behavior problem and the instructor cannot provide adequate instruction and the EBD student may need intensive remediation. An EBD student may show aggressive behavior or a lack of motivation and all these things adds...

...Controversy of Medication DeAnna Bentz AED222: Intro to the exceptional Learner Professor: Christine Tucci March 25, 2012 The Controversy of Medication When it comes to ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder) and EBD (Emotional and Behavior Disorder) have many controversies. (Rosenberg, Westling, & McLeskey, 2007). These controversies are about to reasons: do they exist and should medication be used to treat them? Another question is, are there alternative treatments for ADHD and EBD? In this paper I will also give my opinion on the subject. The controversy of medicating children with ADHD and EBD has recently increased. It has increased due to the fact that more and more children are being diagnosed with these disorders. ADHD and EBD can be hard to diagnose, it takes a lot of documentation. (Rosenberg, Westling, & McLeskey,2007). Some of this documentation will include what characteristics are present in the child. These characteristics for ADHD include: difficulty focusing, cannot sit for extended period of time, very unorganized and difficult following directions. The characteristics for EBD include: a do not care attitude, can be socially disruptive, keeps to oneself at times and physically and verbally abusive. ADHD and EBD can be treated with medication and alternative treatments. ADHD is mostly treated with medication. Some of these medications are Ritalin, Adderoll and Concerta. These are all called stimulants. The controversy to this is how it...

...Abstract Curriculum Guides for Academic Interventions The following is a curriculum guide intended for special educators to teach reading and writing skills to primary students with EBD. Reading and writing are closely related, mutually supportive linguistic activities. Therefore, developing beginning reading skills through writing activities is an effective approach. Writing requires careful scrutiny of the sound and sequence in order to write words correctly and it is this cognitive process that enables the child to become proficient in the phonetic analysis skills that are the foundation of the reading process. This guide will include principles of effective instruction and some teaching strategies used to address the needs of students with EBD. At times it will refer to principles governing behavior that impact the outcomes of instruction. It will include some instructional lessons for teaching primary reading and writing, the steps to achieve the objectives and assessment procedures to insure the efficacy of interventions. Since there hasn’t been many scientifically based studies of EBD specific to these subjects (Yell, Meadows, Drasgow, & Shriner, 2009), the guide will show how a task analysis can be used to design an effective lesson. Teaching children with EBD is compounded by the fact that their behavior problems are often caused by social and academic failure (Kauffman, 2005). Therefore, part of the instructional plan must be to eliminate...

...needs characteristics of children with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (EBD) that predict the placement of these children in restrictive school settings. The researchers point out that children with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (EBD) are often placed in the most restrictive educational settings, despite various countries’ aim to place all children in the least restrictive settings possible, based on the Salamanca Statement (1994). This is due to the fact that EBDs are considered the most challenging disabilities to be catered for in regular education settings. The researchers argue that there are differences in the characteristics between children with EBD that are educated in special education schools and those educated in inclusive education schools. It is argued that these differences play a significant role in the decision as to where a child with EBD is placed and the study seeks to answer two research questions: determination of the differences in characteristics between children with EBD placed in the two different settings, and determination of the the difference that contribute most to placement in restrictive education settings. The researchers mention previous studies that have determined that young age, ethnicity, male gender, low social economic status, stress in family functioning and low IQ are contributors to placement in more restrictive educational settings for children with EBD. They however argue that these findings focus mostly static factors, ignoring...

...EMOTIONAL BEHAVIOR DISORDER IN EDUCATION FONDA D. BYERSON GRAND CANYON UNIVERSITY April 15, 2012 INTRODUCTION: Education is a very important part of society and weighs heavily on human development. It is presented to lay the foundation of knowledge and intellectual welfare for all people. However people being different physically, mentally, and emotionally brings in all types of groups. The diversity in society provides specific challenges for educators sworn to provide an equal effective educational opportunity for all they must have a plan of action to teach all students in their classroom. With more and more classes becoming inclusive educators are more likely than not to have at least one student who suffers from Emotional Behavioral Disorder or EBD. What is EBD? According to the Individual with Disabilities Education Improvement Act EBD is defined as a” condition exhibiting one or more of the following characteristics over a long period of time and to a marked degree that adversely affects a student’s educational experience.” (IDEA ADMENDMENT 1997) 1. Inability to learn that cannot be explained. 2. Hyperactivity 3. Fighting and acting out 4. Socially awkward; Excessive fear 5. Learning difficulties, inappropriate behavior. To define EBD is a difficult task the government definition has been accused of being flawed. Several noted professionals like Steven Forbes and June Knitzer joined together with The National Mental Health Institute...

...of Phoenix Instructor: Traci Martin When it comes to medicating children for EBD and ADHD I honestly have mixed emotions. I believe that we are quick to believe that if we give these children medication that it will automatically dismiss these types of behaviors. I honestly think that this is where we are wrong. In my opinion I do not believe that all children need to be on medication due to being diagnosed to EBD and ADHD. For most children I think that it will be something that will fade out the older that they get. I do not think that just because a doctor says a child is ADHD or has EBD that they need to be medicated. I have been able to see children that were taking ADHD medicines and how their persona changed. They become quiet, depressed, or just seem to be zoned out for the most part. This is not what a young child needs to experience. With these types of children I believe their treatments should start at home. Most kids develop these types of problems due to parents not being home, or not receiving enough attention at home. Possible alternative plans could be talking more with the child and getting their feelings on the situation. Possibly talking to a family counselor could also help. Teachers could also play a big part in their student’s life by taking some one on one time with the students that have ADHD and EBD. I think that where schools are messing up on not doing their part with these types of students is that they are not...

...Introduction Special education has brought out the best and the worst in our society. Special education is often viewed as unreliable, inflated and in some causes even discriminatory. It’s the manner in which students are referred to and then placed in special education. In the past 30 years special education has grown in numbers. According to NPR.org one in seven students, is classified as having a disability. That’s 63% more than when special education programs officially began in 1976. The concern is, what happened in those 3 decades to allow a generation of children to decline mentally and intellectually. There are 13 categories of special education under IDEA: autism, deaf-blindness, emotional disturbance, hearing impairment, mental retardation, multiple disabilities, orthopedic impairment,otherhealth impairment, specific learning disability, traumatic brain injury, speech language impairment and visual impairment including blindness (nichy.org). Two categories made substaintial gains. The number of students labeled with a specific learning disability tripled and the category of other health impairment quadrupled. These categories caused an increase of students placed in special education as a whole to an increase of 86%. Special education has many issues that may hinder or accentuate our present state of consequences. According to Kaufmann (1999), special education is characterized as: Special Education: Past Historically...

...himself, his parents and the head teacher. Introduction and rationale In order to protect privacy the child will be known as B throughout. The setting is a classroom in a main stream 2 form entry LEA Infant and nursery school. B is a 6 year old child with a diagnosis of ASD [Autism] he also has EBD [emotional and behavioural difficulties] with Attachment issues. B is now in Year 2 . B is academically able but exhibiting severe behavioural difficulties and displaying severe aggression toward both peers and adults with obsessive demand avoidance behaviour and impulsivity. These behaviours severely inhibit both his learning and social interaction. B is an only child . The time scale is over a nine month period, June 2010 to February 2011. B was chosen as he was not only requiring two to one support and isolation from the group to uphold the safety of his peers and of staff but was also attending for a reduced timetable of mornings only. Evidently work was required in order to go some way to improve the situation. The impact of the interventions and strategies on the child will form the main thrust of the case study. There are two main aims in undertaking the child study : * To monitor the progress of B and in particular his response to behaviour modification strategies – embarked upon through research study, discussion with other professionals, staff, child and parents. * To enhance the understanding and develop the provision for EBD students and SEN in the whole school community...
