You notice that Krista, one of your students, rarely finishes her homework. In class, you notice that she is often squirming in

her seat and looking around the room while you're talking, and she sometimes "drifts off" even when you're speaking directly to her. Concerned, you check her records and talk to her previous teachers. You see that she was given the WISC-III (an individualized intelligence test), and her score was slightly above average. Her other teachers comment that the patterns you've observed existed in their classes as well. Based on this information, which of the following most accurately describes the patterns you've observed in Krista's behavior?
a. She is mildly intellectually handicapped.
b. She is behaviorally disordered.
c. She has a communication disorder.
d. She has an attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

ADHD stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It is a disorderthat a person with ADHD has differences in brain development and brain activity that affect attention. They virtually have littlie or no ability to sit still, and have self-control. ADHD can affect a child at school, at home, and in friendships.

Kids with ADHD fall under one, two, or all three of these categories:

Kids may have trouble focusing their attention, concentrating, and staying on task. They have a tendency to not listen well to directions, may miss important details and maynot be good finishers They may daydream too much. They may seem absent-minded or forgetful, and lose track of their things.

Hyperactive. 

Kids who are hyperactive are fidgety, restless, and easily bored. They may have trouble sitting still, or staying quiet when needed. They may rush through things and make careless mistakes. They may climb, jump, or roughhouse when they shouldn't. Without meaning to, they may act in ways that disrupt others.

Impulsive. 

They act before they think. They often interrupt, might push or grab, and find it hard to wait. They may do things without asking for permission, , or act in ways that are too risky for themselves and others. They may have emotional reactions that seem to be boderline an over reaction for the situation at hand.

Kista seems to fall under the category of being inattentive and hyperactive.

Select an activity from your regular life that struggles with a large gulf of execution or gulf of evaluation,
Burka [1]

Answer:

Here a struggle caused by the <em>Gulf of execution:</em>

While using Booking website, I want to book a hostel and I am logged in with my account. I think that because I am logged in, I need to only click the button book, put in some the details of my arrival and confirm booking. But for some reason system asks me to type in my email and name again though I am logged in. From my perspective as a user it should not happen because it takes unnecessary extra step from me.  

Here a struggle caused by the <em>Gulf of evaluation:</em>

While using the Booking website I search a hostel in Singapore and it is nicely shows me how far a particular hostel is from the city center (for example 2 kilometers). Meanwhile, when I open a page of this hostel I do not see the information anymore. I have to click at the location, select arbitrary location in the city center on the map and only then will I see the distance between hostel and that location. As a user, I experience a huge gulf in evaluation that forces me to take a numerous extra steps.
