About the Course

This course will provide an overview of ADHD diagnosis and treatment. Course participants can expect to learn about ADHD as a developmental disorder that begins early in childhood, and participants will also learn about evidence-based approaches for diagnosing ADHD. Following that, two evidence-based treatment approaches (the Daily Report Card and Parenting Strategies) will be introduced. (Note these course activities are informational and are not intended to replace working with a licensed/trained professional). Learning Objectives: Students will be able to identify the behaviors characteristic of ADHD, the components of a diagnosis, and evidence-based treatment procedures that can be used in the school or home. 1. Identify the key areas of functional impairment, symptom presentation, and diagnostic decision-making for youth with ADHD. 2. Develop a behavioral intervention suitable for treating ADHD in the school setting. 3. Apply effective parenting and teaching strategies for supporting youth with ADHD in the home, classroom, and neighborhood....

Participating in this course has been a motivation for me because I am currently preparing my self for jobs in schools for children who have this kind of similar situation (ADHD). Thank you Coursera.

Very easy to follow and informative course. Learned some things that I didn't know even though I have two children with ADHD. Would definitely recommend to parents who are wondering what they can do.

It would have been better if our hard work got payed off with a certificate that we completed this course successfully. The course is good but without certification there is no proof what we did and we face challenges in the outside world as everyone required proof.

I found the course a bit rushed and the sound was not at best. I personally would prefer more slow tempo, a little bit more detailed approach and practical examples, as well better video and sound quality would be highly appreciated.

I have a feeling the course covers very little about ADHD. I have learned things but I would like it to be a little more extensive and with more detailed material helping in this way to learn more about children with ADHD

More videos of students in the classroom and real life scenarios would be really helpful. Also how to manage the behaviour when none of the strategies actually work in the classroom.

Could have been more strategies based (even if it were to make the course longer). Did find some of the information useful, some of it is a little out of date, but overall helpful.

There is a lot of information given and I found the strategies given quite helpful and easy to implement in a daily setting. The additional reading material is also quite helpful.

The course provides a concise overview of the disorder and suggests some strategies to cope with it at home and in school. I found it a bit too short and too simple.

Siento que el curso ocupa mucho lo condicionante y esto de alguna manera a la larga afectará la conducta del individuo

The course didnt really meet my expectations. I didn't like the slides, they were very generic, boring, and just had basic info in there without really explaining what is what later in the lecture. The information was very basic and way too short. I appreciate the opportunity to participate in the class, but I wouldn't recommend it to a friend. Maybe work more on expanding the course and improving on visual aids. Slides after the lecture were a good idea, but the slides itself need to be better. Thank you nonetheless.
