Excellent explanation of problems exhibited by this population, which could definitely include undiagnosed students, and excellent suggestions of modifications to be used. The presenter also expertly modeled language that should be used by educators when implementing some of the modifications to increase student confidence and success.

This course was great because it provided strategies to better support students with FASD within the school system. I also appreciated the areas of the brain that alcohol can impact, highlighting potential difficulties moving forward for these kids. Breaking down tasks is important, impulsive actions observed are due to brain damage.

The presenter gave organized information regarding Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders- FASD. He gave a lot of info pertaining to FASD and its incidence/prevalence as well as its description. Time was given to description of FASD, what parts of the brain are affected and how we can identify these individuals. Time was given to naming strengths of people with FASD along with talking about Language issues. The presenter mentioned many things to keep in mind when working with someone with FASD.

I liked that the presenter used both research and personal anecdotes to provide information. The presenter offered many applicable, real life examples of behaviors that individuals with fetal alcohol syndrome may exhibit, and the proper ways to support them. I also enjoyed that the presenter compared fetal alcohol syndrome to other disorders such as autism, to give perspective to the listeners. Touching on the stigma associated with fetal alcohol disorder was also very helpful.

There were many person examples but not as much research included. Additionally, I felt confused about the insistence on FASD being different than other diagnosis but lack of differential diagnosis techniques. Especially considering that FASD and other diagnosis such as ASD or ADHD present similarly and benefit from similar supports/ techniques.

I love how the speaker touched on the slides, but really expanded and explained what was written. You can tell he is an expert in his field and is confident in his knowledge (and lack of - limited brain research) regarding FASD. I also appreciated how he discussed the misdiagnosis or undiagnosed and suspected students as this is often the case with the students I on my caseload.

After 20 years of practice and going to seminars and webinars, I have to say I am overall EXTREMELY impressed by this presenter. Aside from his knowledge base, the way he conveyed it and his organization, as well as making an exam that highlighted the most important and useful aspects, made this an incredible class. I didn't know much about FASD and now I feel so much more confident. I am also going to try using some of the strategies with other students as well.
No more reviews to load.
