Part 1. Main Entry:  Post a brief analysis of what you have learned from this week’s readings and activities.  Start a new thread, and place the header – Name’s Main Entry (e.g.,  Rick’s Main Entry) at the top. Within the body of your post, clearly identify each segment of the required response in order to facilitate discussion development.
a.   This week’s great takeaway:  What concept or theory did you find most interesting this week? Why?
b.  Diagnostic labels:  As you read the chapters on childhood, you may notice that the process of diagnosing and labeling children is changing.  Both labels of autism and fetal alcohol syndrome have now been replaced with “autism spectrum disorders†and “fetal alcohol spectrum disordersâ€, respectively.
1) What thoughts to you have on why these changes have occurred?
2) What impact does labeling a child with a diagnosis have on that child? What are the advantages, disadvantages, and consequences? Support this element of your discussion by posting an article, blog page, video, or other informational resource.
Part 2. Post Constructive Peer Feedback: In addition to posting your thoughts to the main entry questions, respond to at least TWO (2) of your classmates’ entries. In 3 or more sentences, provide constructive feedback. Do you have some additional thoughts on the topic? Share them. When providing your feedback present the logic behind it.
Classmate 1:
a. I was very excited to learn all about lifespan development during the childhood stage since this is the age group that I want to work with as a school counselor. The concepts that I found most interesting this week were found on the page titled “Learning and Intelligence.” I thoroughly enjoyed reading and learning all about the controversies over testing in schools, the different theories of intelligence, and the world of school from different perspectives. It was specifically interesting to read about the politics in the school system and the studies conducted by Lareau and Horvat (2004).
b. I believe that these changes have occurred due to there being many different disorders being discovered under the more broad categories of the autism spectrum disorders and the fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. For example, Asperger’s Syndrome falls under the ASD category, but it is a milder form of ASD, and there are more severe cases of ASD as well (Lumen, 2020). It is not fair to associate every child that possesses symptoms of autism as simply just “autistic,” we have developed different disorders and levels of autism and fetal alcohol syndrome to accommodate all of the disorders that may emerge from these diagnoses.
The impacts of labeling a child with these diagnoses can be life-altering. As mentioned in the text, a child’s difficulties can change over time and they may improve or their delays during their school years may not be relevant during adulthood but these labels will still follow them for the rest of their life. Not to mention, it may contribute to low self-esteem and lack of confidence. One article from Pearson Allyn Bacon Prentice Hall discusses the advantages and disadvantages of labeling students with learning disabilities. Some of the advantages, according to Henley et al. (n.d.) include: the development of specialized teaching methods, assessment approaches, and behavioral interventions and federal and local funding for special education programs. Some of the disadvantages are that students are unable to receive these special education services without being labeled, labeling comes with blame and guilt not only for the student but for the parents as well, there is questionable validity and reliability for evaluation across different states putting some students at a disadvantage and causing overrepresentation for some.
