Description:

Do you have students who can't sit still, constantly disrupt others, or just stare into space? Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is one of the most common learning and behavioral problems, yet the implications of this disorder are shrouded in myth and misconception.

Outcomes: Participants will understand how ADHD behavior differs from normal; learn the neurobiological characteristics of ADHD; explore the implications of ADHD across the lifespan in the classroom, family and community; and develop a basic understanding of laws affecting service delivery.

Cost: $10 (includes handouts and continental breakfast)
