Disabilities are not always developed in their womb; instead they can be the result of extreme physical trauma. Such is the case with traumatic brain injury, which is described as the IDEA by “an acquired inquiry to the brain caused by an external physical force, resulting in total or partial functional disability or psychological impairment or both, that adversely affects a child’s educational performance. In such sudden disability development, parents and guardians may not be experienced in what services their child should receive, so it is especially important for a teacher to know how to provide the right support. A unit prepared by the Colorado State University is useful for any teacher learning how to help their students. It begins with a brief summary of what traumatic brain industry is, as well as what cognitive and behaviors changes can occur with specific parts to the brain. Afterwards, the site shows exactly how to differentiate and deliver lessons for classroom with students with traumatic brain inquiry.
