  • An acquired brain injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain that is not hereditary, congenital, degenerative, or induced by birth trauma.
  • A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as an alteration in brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force.
  • Often referred to as an acquired brain injury, a non-traumatic brain injury causes damage to the brain by internal factors, such as a lack of oxygen, exposure to toxins, pressure from a tumor, etc.

  • The human brain is magnificent and complex. The brain is made up of many parts, each with a specific and important function. It controls our ability to balance, walk, talk, and eat. It coordinates and regulates our breathing, blood circulation, and heart rate. It is responsible for our ability to speak, to process and remember information, make decisions, and feel emotions. Every brain is unique, ever-changing, and extremely sensitive to its environment.

  • A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is an injury that affects how the brain works. TBI is a major cause of death and disability in the United States. Anyone can experience a TBI, but data suggest that some groups are at greater risk for getting a TBI or having worse health outcomes after the injury.

  • Select a meaningful goal or skill the student will need to learn and present it at the level of the student; Provide a simple rationale to help the student understand the relevance of the skill; Give clearly stated task directions (limit the number of steps) and ask the student to repeat or paraphrase the directions to ensure understanding; Break tasks into small steps and demonstrate each step; Provide opportunities for student response and practice at an appropriate pace; Provide immediate feedback and error correction when necessary—feedback should be positive and systematic; and Use verbal praise and encouragement frequently.
  • Use a direct statement telling the student to start (rather than stop) a behavior; Look directly at the student as you give the request, move close, and use a soft, calm voice.; speak clearly, slowly and concisely—do not shout. Limit requests to only two or three at a time and give requests that the student is capable of following; Allow enough time for the student to follow through; and Recognize their effort with verbal praise and encouragement.

    The Invitation to Change model for supporting people struggling with substance abuse issues provides a similar framework that we see in Greene's ALSUP/Plan B model. You may find this model for empathic listening more accessible than the others shared. Since addiction almost always begins in adolecence, researchers have begun classifying it as a delayed learning disability. If schools could catch and address the lagging skills that get in the way of students' success without brain altering substances, we might face fewer issues with addiction later down the line. Food for thought.
