China pays attention to the special education of children's learning disabilities
U. S. media said that Chinese universities are paying more and more attention to children's development and special educational needs. It is in the areas of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and difficulty in reading and writing.
reports that a country with a population of 1 billion 300 million needs time to change its coping style. But China is on the way.
2017, November 9th, students in the special education school in Changde, Hunan Province, were in class. Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Jinhai
reported on March 25th, according to the American "resourceful" website, a report released by the Institute of Psychology.CAS showed that more than 10 million pupils in China were troubled by difficulties in reading and writing. Another report, published by No.6 Hospital of Peking University, estimates that at least 5% of the children in China have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and only a few of them have been diagnosed.
reported that more and more organizations and professionals try to make the public more aware of learning disabilities and their coping styles. The family of Shanghai Da Yun provides children's psychiatric services in Beijing and Shanghai, and operates a special curriculum school. Experts from the family of the big house also train staff in Beijing and Shanghai schools to better prepare for children with additional educational needs. The Chinese dyslexia foundation is a charity organization that trains social workers and teachers in Beijing to better understand dyslexia and support children with dyslexia. Schools are responding, and requests from different schools for student assessment are increasing.
clinical psychologist, Rebecca Doug, the manager of Shanghai's home, said, "on the whole, the school is paying attention to some of the problems in the classroom, especially the behavior problems - and start asking for support."
reported that in 2007, with the gradual understanding of physical disability, the Chinese government signed the United Nations Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities. In 2013, China began implementing the mental health law of the People's Republic of China.
but there are still many challenges to transform the small progress of individual organizations, schools and universities into broader national initiatives. In some areas, the size of schools is over 60, and the demand for special education is unlikely to develop naturally in such an environment. The lack of government support for coping is also reflected in the study by Zhou Xin, a professor of pre school education at East China Normal University. Through the study of children who are difficult to learn mathematics in pre-school education, Zhou Xin finds that the extra support for students with special needs is not from the school level. "The majority depends on whether or not the teacher decides to learn and apply relevant knowledge," she said.
reported that even so, private sector and academia's actions in coping with the needs of China's special education have spread their information. Rebecca road said East China Normal University and other universities are working hard to train instructors who can support their students. Although the original motivation of these projects is likely to relieve the students' academic stress, she believes that giving students more attention will be helpful for children with special learning requirements.
