Agenda
Day One – November 13, 2024
WORKSHOP #1: Inclusive Education: Strategies for Engaging Neurodiverse Learners

WORKSHOP #2: Shielding the Vulnerable: How to Protect their Heart and Minds
Presented by
Eva de Gosztonyi, M.A.
8:00am - 11:45am November 13, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
For those who spend their days interacting with the young, be it in schools, group homes, daycares and in our own homes, we sometimes forget how vulnerable they are. Developing beings are entirely dependent on the care of the more mature. Yet so many common practices that we use, especially when behaviour is challenging, increase feelings of separation and vulnerability and inadvertently lead to other unanticipated problems, including mental-health issues. This session will focus on creating a better understanding of what our children need from us and on analyzing the pitfalls of some of our most commonly used interventions and interactions, including the use of praise, rewards, consequences, time-outs, democratic or child-led practices, and self-regulation. The presentation will then provide alternatives to these, as well as encouraging adults to find ways to support children in the most important task of all, helping their emotions to move through.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Explain why at least three common behaviour management practices increase vulnerability
- Improve their ability to increase child-adult attachment using strategies presented
- Describe ways to help children to stay out of trouble
- Improve their capacity for helping children to live fully with their emotions

WORKSHOP #3: Optimizing our Understanding of ADHD & its Complex Nature
Presented by
Caroline Buzanko, Ph.D., R. Psych
12:45pm - 3:30pm November 13, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a complex, heterogeneous disorder. When left unmanaged, ADHD is associated with long-term pervasive impairment across all areas of functioning. Recent models of ADHD have conceptualized ADHD as a disorder of behavioural inhibition, impairing executive functioning (EF), which lead to difficulties with self-regulation, organizing and planning behaviours, attention, and distractibility.
Given the substantial risk for students with ADHD, conducting valid and collaborative assessments, as well as developing effective interventions to promote student success, are critical to mitigate associated impairments and long-term risks. In this learning series, clinicians, educators, and families will develop a 360° understanding of ADHD to promote student success in all areas of functioning. Participants will learn more about the ADHD brain, how EF deficits manifest, self-regulation, effective teaching practices, and practical strategies to optimize the ADHD brain and the child’s overall social, emotional, and behavioural functioning. Practical case-base material is presented so participants can easily adapt strategies to meet the unique needs of their students.
Importantly, there are essential components to optimize assessments and interventions that are not widely known. This webinar is therefore vital for anyone working with children with ADHD. Participants will learn the critical steps to take to address the shortcomings of diagnostic assessments. Further, participants will learn imperative approaches to overcome the gaps that medications and behaviour modification cannot address.
When managed effectively, ADHD is an asset that supports individuals’ successes. There are so many positive qualities of ADHD that need to be celebrated, which are also addressed. By the end of the webinar, participants will have a renewed outlook on ADHD, and they will be better equipped to identify ADHD and design and implement effective intervention programs for children with ADHD.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Develop a 360° understanding of ADHD and executive functions
- Identify key assets of ADHD and how to optimize them
- Identify associated comorbidities and how they complicate the presentation and treatment of ADHD
- Implement strategies to conduct effective assessments and obtain valid diagnostic results
- Address shortcomings of assessment practices and to promote accurate results and parents’ acceptance of their child’s diagnosis
- Integrate assessment data to highlight areas of strengths and challenges and inform effective intervention
- Create a toolbox of practical strategies they can individualize and use immediately to help kids with ADHD in all areas of functioning, including at home, at school, and within relationships
WORKSHOP #4: Managing Behaviour Without Rewards
Presented by
Eva de Gosztonyi, M.A.
12:45pm - 3:30pm November 13, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
When students have difficulty with their behaviours teachers are often advised to implement a reward system. However, developmental science and trauma research do not support these systems, warning of unwanted side-effects for children’s development. These systems are known to lose their effectiveness over time, are complicated to implement, and rarely result in long-term change. Of concern is that they can significantly affect the all-important child-adult attachment relationship, can increase anxiety even among the well-behaved, and can cause discouragement and a sense of shame for the student who cannot “do better” despite best intentions and a desire to earn rewards. This presentation will provide an analysis of what works and does not work, and why. Then effective alternatives to help manage behaviour in the classroom such as increasing the students’ desire to please their teacher, simple classroom alterations that can make behaving appropriately easier, and suggestions for how to respond when behaviour is challenging, will be described.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Describe at least 3 reasons why reward systems are not advised for the optimal development of a child
- Increase child-adult attachment using strategies presented
- Implement classroom alterations to help address behavioural concerns
- Respond more effectively to a misbehaving student.
