Teaching of students with emotional & behavioural difficulties

Students with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) face intricate challenges when it comes to transitioning into careers. The nuances of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD demands a comprehensive understanding. Existing knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions about career transitioning for these students often lack depth, leading to gaps in support systems. Educational and policy issues further compound the difficulties, hindering the seamless integration of individuals with ADHD into the workforce. Barriers persist, and the need for effective solutions is urgent. Perspectives on Career Transitioning of Students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a meticulously researched and thoughtfully crafted book on ensuring a smooth and comprehensive transition to career life after being a student for individuals with ADHD. Developed through an extensive research project, this book, a product of the Global Excellence and Stature (GES) 4.0 Research Fellowship, provides a multifaceted exploration of the challenges faced by these students. The book employs a discursive analysis approach to delve into theories, methods, policy issues, intervention studies, practice guidelines, institutional supports, validation studies, career counseling models, and barriers to career transition. The book offers tailored insights and strategies to help students join the workforce. This book is not just an academic endeavor; it is a call to action for scholars, educators, and policymakers. It serves as a guide, offering in-depth knowledge and practical approaches to transform the landscape of career transitioning for neurodivergent students. By delving into the various topics and comprehensive chapters, readers can gain a nuanced understanding of the challenges and, more importantly, access innovative solutions to implement. The time for change is now, and this book stands as a beacon, inviting readers to be part of a transformative journey toward a more inclusive and supportive educational and professional landscape for individuals with ADHD.
