- Do your self-advocacy before/after class, it is much easier and less stressful then doing it in front of 29 students.
- Self advocacy is linked to knowledge about our own learning profile, not personal preferences
- "because of my written output issues, these problems will take me about 2 hours" NOT "I hate long problem sets"
- Teachers assign work to help students learn, so try to find a way to learn what the teacher is trying to get you to learn: "would it be possible for you to point out the 5 most challenging questions from the set?"
This is intended to provide information about issues surrounding young people who are twice exceptional, who are intellectually gifted but struggle with LD or, in most cases, with learning output issues. This blog will revolve around the first program in a public secondary school in Canada specifically for students labelled GLD. (Prince of Wales Secondary in Vancouver.)
