Invisible Intelligence - Why...

Welby Ings

In Invisible Intelligence, educationalist, filmmaker and best-selling author Welby Ings considers how schools measure intelligence and shows how narrow definitions of literacy and numeracy can lead to bright students being described as ‘behind’ and positioned as problems, when they are not. Ings mixes poignant, humorous and insightful storytelling with current research to explore the ways that some children’s intelligent approaches to problem-solving are dismissed or ignored, with devastating consequences for individuals and society. Yet Invisible Intelligence offers hope. Written with wisdom, experience and compassion, it is the kind of book that ‘puts an arm around the shoulders’ of those who love and work with kids whose intelligence is not recognised because they don’t learn the same way as other children. Pragmatic, wise and helpful, Invisible Intelligence shows what we can do better in education, and why it’s so important that we do.

The Sadness Business

Patrick Landman

Have you lost a loved one? Your sadness becomes depression. Your child is a little too lively? He or she may be a danger to society. Do you have a penchant for cake? You have a psychiatric disorder.
The new standard way of thinking about mental health, dictated by the publication of an international guide, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, is authorian and overshadows Therapeutic Listening in favor of the drug treatment—its latest version, the DSM-5, lists more than 350 diseases.
Patrick Landman exposes the abuses of such a takeover—the range of normality is reduced and we all become consumers of psychotropic drugs, and even potential lunatics.

The Effects of ADHD on...

Jim Colajuta

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disease) is a common emotional and behavioral disorder that can disrupt a child's academic and social functioning. ADHD is characterized by inattention, impulsivity, and motor activity that are developmentally inappropriate. Within an educational setting, children with attention problems form a unique group with a wide range of demands. Although there are various issues linked with children who have been diagnosed with ADHD, many parents and educators are concerned about social skill impairments.The most unpleasant element of ADHD-related deficits is not being accepted by one's peer group, feeling separated, strange, unlikeable, and alone, and these experiences have long-term consequences. It's crucial to maintain positive relationships with people. Though children with ADHD really want to make friends and be accepted by their peers, they frequently lack the skills to do so. The good news is that you can assist your child in developing these social abilities and skills.
