Difficult Students
What about students that have A.D.D. OR similar illnesses that can appear to be disruptive in a class room. This could come across as a cheating or angry student. I have not come across this yet, but i am sure I will.
Thanks Patriciai,
My concern is an individual with (A.D.D. or etc.) learning disability may look around because they have trouble focusing on the task at hand. They may even become aggravated. I have not experienced it either. My concern was if this is occuring. What would be a good way to handle it. Children with A.D.D will eventually become adults looking for careers.
Hi Thomas,
Please help me understand how can a student with A.D.D. come across as a cheating student? I have not experienced this yet in my 21-year tenure.

I think you'll have to talk to them on the side. They need to be aware of their influence on the rest of the class. It will also send a message to the class that you care about the environment in which you are teaching. Come to some kind of understanding with them on how the future will go. That's my opinion.
