The right of entry to education resources is more than uncomplicated admission to a college. The right to use means to provide students with the devices they will need to be victorious in higher learning. Students with a recognized disability ought to be no omission. In reality, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, “ensure that all qualified persons have equal access to education regardless of the presence of any disability.” Objective replacement, class waivers, and revision of classroom management, testing and course necessities are all illustrations of behavior to supply access for the learner with a disability. A break down to the creation of such practical adjustments can place schools in breach of federal and state statutes, ensuing expensive fines.

Once you have raised your virtual child through age 5, respond thoroughly to the following questions.
The virtual child stimulation is an online program that offers students a feel of what it is like to raise a child and make parenting-decisions concerning that child. Students also learn about the situations that occur in the three main life stages, and see how their decisions determine how their child will turn out. The focus of this assignment will be on my virtual child, Jason, the problems that occurred in the life stages, and the options I chose when raising Jason.
My Virtual Child program basically covers physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development at several age levels. Various personalized questions were asked and given scenarios that would shape my child’s physical development, cognitive development, and affect his personality. My Virtual Child has a unique set of characteristics at birth, some of which were influenced by how I answered and completed the assessment when I first logged into My Virtual Child. These characteristics gradually emerged and affected his behavior and development. When it was time, our precious baby boy was born and we decided to name him Noah. Noah as a newborn was fussy and often wanted to be held. Breastfeeding time seemed to be the perfect soothing method. I enjoyed breastfeeding because it builds up his immune system. At this point Noah recognized me as his primary care giver because I was the one always attending to his needs. According to Bowlby’s theory of attachment “The infant knows that the caregiver is dependable, which creates a secure base for the child to then explore the world”. As a result, Noah was more attached to me than he was to my husband. As time transcurred, he was able to bond to my husband by spending more quality time together.
With what I have learned from the My Virtual Child program, I now understand the complexities of raising and guiding a child. Mere decisions made during infancy can affect a child long term, physically, cognitively, and even emotionally. To make important developmental decisions cannot simply be classified as a challenge, it is one of the hardest things parents experience. Making decisions for one’s self, as opposed to making decisions for one’s child is so challenging that most people will not understand until they have children. Even with the realistic impression this program has, I would venture to say that even
I was asked to create and answer questions about a virtual child. When I was told this was an assignment I thought “this should be easy”. Boy was I wrong! I found many things can affect the outcome of my child. If I am too strict or too easy, the child’s behavior will show this. Over time, this will also affect the child’s temperament. I have learned that some of my classmates’ virtual children are harder to get along with and require more discipline then others. I decided to just trust my instinct and answer the questions as if they were for a real child. In this report you will see how my answers affected my virtual daughter Alexis and, my experience throughout the duration of the assignment.
For this outcome, I chose the CE101unit 6 assignment. I select this artifact because I provided information in childcare laws, early intervention and family services programs that promote family participation. This artifact shows my knowledge, commitment and desire to help families to find high quality childcare and resources within the community. It’s necessary to be aware of the resources that promoted family participation and address families concerned. One of the programs is known in Louisiana as “EarlySteps”. EarlySteps urges families to participate because they believe families are the child’s best advocates, also strongly ask that families always communicate any burden they may have. As teacher we have the opportunity to work with families
“My Virtual Child” was a web based assignment on raising a child based on real life scenarios and answering questions that you are expected to answer as a real parent would. My assignment this time starts with Link being 9 years old. At 9 Link began to consume allot of food. Eating and snacking up to 9 times a day, I knew this was normal for his age. Most boys at 12 grow about 4 inches in height and put on 26 pounds every year once they begin puberty (Rogol, Roemmich, & Clark, 2002). We did our best to guide him into a healthy lifestyle, eating healthy and nutritious foods along with encouraging him to continue with the swim and water polo teams. Because he stuck with his sports as he got older, he received a full ride scholarship right out of high school.
Once students are accepted they should contact their post-secondary settings’ Disability Services Office (ideally this is done prior to the start of the semester to ensure necessary supports are implemented at the beginning of the year). Students will not receive services if they do not advocate for their educational needs. They must submit adequate documentation of their disability (IEPs, educational testing, etc.). The Disability Office then reviews the documentation to determine eligibility. Students meet with Disability Service staff to create an Accommodation Package, which takes the place of an IEP. During this time, students can advocate for their needs by discussing supports that they benefitted from in the past. Oftentimes, Disability Services will assist students in course selection and can advise them on specific accommodations for varying subjects or courses.
On the website "Do It" you can find many different accommodations that students with Learning Disabilites will benefit from such as:
As the University of the Fraser Valley strives to improve their campus’s accessibility to disabled citizens, they are also responsible by law, legislations, and policies enforced by the Canadian government. UFV is required to follow certain given guidelines in order to preserve the “BC Human Rights Code” and the “Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms”. The “Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms” states the equality and rights of every individual, including physically challenged citizens. In order to follow this charter, one must practice the “BC Human Rights Code”. The use of this code is for protecting British Columbia’s citizens against discrimination when it comes to employment, housing, and services and facilities that are available for public use. This code states as follows: “A person must not, without a bona fide and reasonable justification, deny to a person or class of persons any accommodation, service or facility customarily available
Recommendations for reasonable accommodations and services should be logically related to the student’s functional limitations and their specific condition. OSS does not accept handwritten documentation; all information submitted must be typed and should include the credentials of the diagnosing professional/physician.Students with a disability that substantially limits one or more major life activity (walking, talking, learning, hearing, etc) that have been accepted to BCC need to submit current and appropriate documentation of such disability from a properly credentialed professional.
Preschool classroom’s fosters an exploratory play environment for children ages four to five to prepare students for private school kindergarten courses and utilizes North Carolina kindergarten standards to develop curriculum. Cumberland County public school system does not have the best reputation for educating students and has created a need for more private schools. Currently, we only offer a preschool program but plan to expand into the elementary school ages. As the new school year approaches I will be redesigning the classroom environment and
