I wonder if the point could be that many students with certain disabilities do not understand sarcasm, because it is characterstic of their disability to take all statements literally. Observe the extra long arms, oversized hands and feet of these characters. Listen to their monotone. As strange and confusing as this is for the common observer, could it be an abstract example of the way learning disabled students perceive their own worlds?
This was a very nice little summary of information I'm reading about in my Intro to Exceptionality grad course. Thanks for posting it here to help reinforce the important methods. As for the satire comment: perhaps you could have used a teacher who taught you to research your facts before making such claims. The methods presented in the video are nationally recognized for assisting students to becoming contributing members of society.
For those of you who are giving such ridiculous statements like "how do students improve when SpEd does it all?" or "life has no accommodations, deal with it". Are you just that stupid, or are you just insensitive? Kids with learning disorders like processing disorders NEED these adjustments in order to stay on track with the rest of the class. My son has CAPD, and was just diagnosed 3 years ago at 11 years old. If these haters had kids, they'd understand.
I am confused. There is no satire. There is no joke This was a project for a masters class in which was based on research about learning disabilities. Which anyone can Google.
The project was done using extranormal as a way to differentiate instruction for educators and to show how they can differentiate instruction for there students.
Even adults get bored with the same ole way of learning or have a learning disability and could benefit from this type of lesson.
What the heck are you talking about? They are discussing accommodations for kids with learning disabilities, like my son who has an Auditory Processing Disorder. So "Traeseare", you expect these kids to just "deal with it"??? I hope you never have a child who needs these things done for them. Not everyone can homeschool or pay for private schools. The teacher is getting great recommendations from their peer about how they can make things easier for the kids. CAPD, research it.
In case non-teachers missed it... the 'satire' is written between the lines. Everything he suggests is the TEACHER doing the work FOR the student. "Accommodations" which turn out to be escape routes from doing the work. This cycle repeats itself over and over in the primary grades and suddenly we wonder why kids drop out of high school or can't pass state tests.

This is satire. Listen again: every accommodation boils down to "do it for the student."
The student can't keep up with silent reading: give them the book in a recorded form.
The student can't keep up with notetaking: give the student someone else's notes or put the notes online.
The student is disorganized: give the student an assignment page online.
It's satire because it highlights how stupid the object of satire is. How do students improve when the SpEd or GenEd teacher does it all?

Should have dubbed in voices instead using robot voices...

Life has no accommodations. Deal with it.

Is this satire? Either way, it's terrible.
