Electronic Data Base To Assist In Developinng a Curriculum

Post by sweetcheeksxoxo » Fri Jun 02, 2017 2:47 pm

I have having a lot of trouble with question 3, im not understanding how to make an electronic data base? if anyone has any suggestions or an example that would help out so much.

Task 3 Electronic Data Base (total: 25 marks)
Compile an electronic data base of sources of information to assist in developing or adapting a curriculum/environment to support children with a barrier to learning/additional need.
Guide to National Quality Standards defines children with an additional need...

‘These are children who require or will benefit from specific considerations or adaptations and who:

• are Aboriginals or Torres Strait Islanders
• are recent arrivals in Australia
• have a culturally and linguistically diverse background
• live in isolated geographic locations
• are experiencing difficult family circumstances or stress
• are at risk of abuse or neglect
• are experiencing language and communication difficulties
• have a diagnosed disability—physical, sensory, intellectual or autism spectrum disorder
• have a medical or health condition
• demonstrate challenging behaviours and behavioural or psychological disorders
• have developmental delays
• have learning difficulties
• are gifted or have special talents
• have other extra support needs.
• It is important to note that: additional needs arise from different causes, and that causes require different responses any child may have additional needs from time to time.’ (p. 202)

Choose two (2) barriers to learning/additional needs to focus on for this task.
Divide the electronic data base resource into two (2) sections, one section for each identified additional need.
For each of the two additional needs chosen:
a) Provide a description of the additional need with information about the cause, symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, and implication/strategies for developing or adapting a curriculum/environment to support children.
List at least one (1) URL of a reputable website that provides current, accurate and useful information to support children with this additional need. (15 marks)

b) Investigate your local community to access support agencies and inclusion support professionals who offer support to Education and Care Services and families with children with additional need. List these with a brief description of the service offered and the contact details. (10 marks)
