  1. Teaching Students with Disabilities Disability Advisory Service 3 Worcester Street Oxford 01865 280459 disability@admin.ox.ac.uk Anwen Jones SpLD Specialist

  2. Who are our disabled students? • Hidden or Obvious • Declared or not • Anticipatory duty .... Regardless of declared • Did we take reasonable steps to identify... • Students enrolled during 2012/13 academic year with disclosed disability approx 1500

  3. Students enrolled during 2012/13 academic year:

  4. What to do to help? Talk to the student .... they are often the expert Understand the general nature of disabilities Be observant ... Many disabilities hidden

  5. Specific Learning Difficulties

  6. Words .... Words ..... words • contumacious • wharfinger • omniscience • Bough / bow • Chews / choose • Simple and common words wrong .....with / was / who / had / the • sign / sing • black / bleak

  7. Words ... Words ... words This paper reviews recent advances in emission of terahertz radiation from two-dimensional (2D) electron systems in semiconductor nano-heterostructures. 2D plasmon resonance is first presented to demonstrate intense broadband terahertz emission from InGaP/InGaAs/GaAs and InAlAs/InGaAs/InP material systems. The device structure is based on a high-electron mobility transistor and incorporates the author’s original interdigitated dual-grating gates. Second topic focuses on graphene, a monolayer carbon-atomic honeycomb lattice crystal, exhibiting unique carrier transport and optical properties owing to massless and gapless energy spectrum. Coherent stimulated terahertz emission from femtosecond infrared-laser pumped epitaxial graphene is experimentally observed, reflecting the occurrence of negative dynamic conductivity and population inversion.

  8. Challenges: the impact • Reading Mountain • Writing Frustration • Speed of Response • Lecture, debate • Presentation • Organisation

  9. Challenges: the impact • Slow and effortful • Access and retrieval difficult • Error prone • Costs of compensation • Workload • Sleep • Stress and anxiety • Extra-curricular experience

  10. What you might see??? • The public-private law debate as to whether it is appropriate and desirable to hold public authorities up to different standards as opposed private entities is exemplified when examining the law of tort because quite often it will be seen that a separate standard exists in the courtroom when the judges are considering the tortious liability of the public authority.

  11. Compensatory Strengths? Always individual – regardless of the label

  12. Other Hidden Disabilities • Mental Health Difficulties • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome • Asperger Syndrome

  13. Support and Reasonable Adjustments • Aim is to remove barriers caused by specific difficulties not reduce quality or intellectual effort as required from all students • Teacher • Task • Test

  14. Success
