The sixth of our series of ten articles on cerebral palsy (CP) looks at the range of aids and other adaptive equipment that help people with CP to move about and communicate effectively. Still others help prepare IEPs (individualized education plans) which provide other teachers with information about how classrooms need to be modified to help students learn to their maximum potential. It’s an unfortunate fact of the modern school setting that teachers can’t provide very much individual attention to their students.

If your child is already attending school and you are worried about his progress, keep the lines of communication open with his teachers. One of the basic ideas of adaptive learning is to take this progress monitoring and use it to present the most helpful learning environment possible for each child.

The teacher is the person who interprets to students what those standards mean and provides appropriate learning activities. Many teachers will refer students to the special education department for an evaluation. IDL Systems has provided a breakthrough with their adaptive learning technology—the Adaptive Learning system.

A learning disability, dyslexia is often misunderstood by both parents and teachers. Educational scientists have developed many learning models to describe the way people learn. IDL Systems offers Adaptive Blended Learning (ABL)—a combination of online learning and classroom sessions.

An Overview Of The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale (VABS) For Children

Adaptive learning recognizes that each student learns at her own pace and in her own way. A well-modeled basis was build for the adaptive e-learning system. From the many tens of models that are debated in the academic literature, IDL Systems has synthesized “five learning styles” that represent the broad spectrum of ways the people learn. Often the modifications and strategies that are recommended provide your child with enough support that academic performance is improved and special education services are not required.

Pre-referral helps to make certain that your child is provided with appropriate modifications and accommodations before being referred for special education testing. Parents or caregivers and educators will do well to work closely to help children with CP achieve their educational goals.

Thirdly, computer science was choose as the research domain, based on the domain knowledge space model, the knowledge taxonomy architecture and concept sets were constructed, and domain knowledge ontology was built. Online games that use an adaptive learning model to teach math can be invaluable to students who are struggling.

Environmental Issues

As information increases explosively, the diversity and heterogeneity of knowledge in different domains make it difficult to represent and share knowledge. Firstly, various theory models of teaching and learning processes were studied; the definition and description of learning behaviors in those theory models were analyzed; based on different characteristics of the learning behaviors, the features and requirements of the adaptive e-learning process was studied in order to provide the theory architecture and behavior model for the adaptive e-learning system; how to present knowledge space was studied, domain knowledge model and user knowledge space model were established.… Read More..
