ECD 310 WEEK 5 FINAL ASSIGNMENT

WK5 DQ1

Cameron

Cameron is a 7-year-old boy with delayed motor skills and sensory processing problems, which are clumsiness with poor motor coordination, distractible, sensitivity to certain touch experiences, and noise. Difficulty playing with friends.

Explain at least one ethical dilemma that you may encounter as you work to create an inclusive environment for the individual in your chosen case study.

One dilemma I may encounter trying to create an inclusive environment for Cameron is preventing triggers that may cause him to run away suddenly, which may cause him to injure himself due to clumsiness. Control the volume of the other children so that he does not experience hearing discomfort.

Propose a solution to the potential ethical dilemma you explained in the previous bullet. Support your proposal with Special Education Professional Ethical Principles.

I committed to upholding the principles of the code of ethics. In the situation, I am responsible for protecting and supporting the physical and psychological safety of individuals with exceptionalities. Cameron has those exceptionalities and to uphold the principles I propose these solutions:

1. Ensure I have developed proper classroom management in terms of classroom voices.

2. Educate the class on how to help Cameron while he is in class with us. 3. Give him one on one time utilizing the Co-teacher. 4. Creating a collaboration team to support the development of Cameron's motor

skills and what other resources may benefit him.

The treatments recommended in the case study would be to have weekly sensory integration-based therapy in a clinic, a home program of sensory-motor activities, and strategies to manage sensory problems.

Discuss how you would share your solution with others in order to become a leader in developing inclusive settings.

Initially, I would have recorded data from class observations and reports from his parents, of Cameron's progress based on his treatments listing the pro's and con's of his developments. Using the data collected evidence, I can share the case study as a learning tool to help other teachers learn what can be used to assist students with the same or similar exceptions as Cameron to help ensure the student's academic growth.
