Through an in-class assessment, a majority of students demonstrated proficiency or high-proficiency in their understanding of AD/HD and relevant symptoms.
Analysis SummaryThe analysis of this data showed that the SLO in question was sufficiently met; the students understand treatment methodologies, core symptoms of AD/HD, resources and interventions.
