For me it was interesting to note the similarities and differences between TBI and PTSD effects. Considering the intersectionality of these two conditions, it is clear that students experiencing both TBI and PTSD will require significant support to be successful in the classroom. Having taught students with TBI (very prevalent among student athletes) I do know that the recovery can be a long process and it seems that this diagnosis is often misunderstood by teachers and administrators. It is important for 504 teams to quickly develop an appropriate response so that all of the student's teachers understand the challenges that the student is experiencing and can make appropriate accomodations for the student.
