Learning Disabilities and Special Education

Through

Social and Natural Science Lenses

Faiza Salman IDS 100 10/21/

Introduction

 The focal point of this presentation is Learning Disabilities

and Special Education examined through lenses of social and

natural science.

 I chose this topic because I wanted to learn what is the root-cause of learning disabilities?  I was eager to learn why this problem is on rise these days?  I was interested in knowing that what are the most effective strategies to tackle this problem and help students with learning disabilities?

 Social science focuses on different teaching methods, improvement in students through learning, and training teachers with the latest and the most advanced strategies to tackle this problem.

Learning Disabilities & Special

Education and Natural Science

 There is a strong connection between learning disabilities & special education, fetus development inside the womb, and early childhood.  Certain genes passed from either parent affect brain development that later cause learning disabilities.  During the pregnancy mothers who were placed on bed rest, experienced heavy bleeding, and took prescription medicines, later their kids showed signs of learning disabilities.

Convergence

 Similarities between these two lenses surpass

science factor

oBoth lenses emphasis on the significance of the special education once the child is diagnosed with learning disabilities. oBoth lenses need factual data to investigate and get better answers.

Divergence

 Both lenses look into the problem of learning

disabilities and special education in different ways

oSocial science talks about the possible solution to help students with LD through special education and improve them using different strategies. oNatural science focus on the root-cause of the problem like human factors. For example, it talks about fetus’s brain development, chromosomal abnormalities, and mother’s condition during pregnancy.

Further Exploration

 For further exploration, I would like to know if

learning disabilities are gender specified. Like who is

more vulnerable to this girls or boys.

 Can vaccines cause LD?

oVaccine toxicity, Aluminum, and mercury content in vaccines.

 Is our lifestyle contributing to the problem?

oFood we consume, daily activities, and exposure to technology.

Conclusion

  • What I have understood through my research is, learning disability is a neurological defect that can occur inside the womb or during early infancy period but the best part is, there is a lot of help that these kids can get. They can get good education, have a good future, and function normally in the society. Teachers are well-trained to educate kids with learning disabilities through special education programs.
