More than one
I find that in the class I instruct,I am constantly changing up my approach to lecture. With a student that has Asberger's, and another with ADHD, there a re definitely challenges i meet on almost a daily basis. These students do take special considerations and most importantly, must be addressed accordingly. Also being fair to the other students without these suituations.
Jon,
I can't argue with you. Having multiple students with disabilities in class -- students who have DIFFERENT disability-related needs -- can be a time consuming and sometimes exhausting challenge. Lucky for them, you sound up to it!

one would be ruff let alone two. I find even teaching students without an actual disability can be trying at times. everyone learns differently therefore I change my approach daily.
Michael,
The key is your recognition that "everyone learns differently." The presence of disability doesn't make it impossible to learn, just different!
Dr. Jane Jarrow
I agree, every student is different whether they are disabled or not. Each student needs something a little different than the next. Disabled students require a little move patience and extra help but with those accimmendations they will be just as productive as any student in the class.
Sharon,
Disabled students don't always require a little more patience, and the extra help is actually in the form of accommodation, not a kind gesture. But I understand and applaud your sentiment, even if I question the wording!
Dr. Jane Jarrow
