‘Disability is a matter of perception. you can do just one thing well you're needed
by someone’ - Martina Navratilova. Yes, indeed, having a disability, it does not
really matter whether a person has a disability, it makes no difference whether or
not the individual actually has the disability. ‘Disability is a matter of perception’
This phrase always marks in my head, because our sir said earlier, it depends on
people how they perceived people, we can’t judge those people having a difficulty
because having that life isn’t easy. There are many perceptions concerning
impaired people, most of which are negative. Some of these perceptions include,
evil spirits possessing people with disability, them facing prejudice, and being
shameful to associate with the disabled and the most common one that they are
not as productive as others. According to my research it shows that the largest
number of people, about 80 percent, perceive those with a disability as
unproductive and a burden to society, I can’t imagine 80% percent? Really, as I
perceive them, they are very talented and gifted, I have a neighbor who disabled
person that he has a gift, he is very talented in art, he knows how to draw life
nature or portraits painting. We are very closed but I idolize him a lot. The
unproductivity perception has caused a lot of discrimination, ridicule, isolation
and rejection to the disabled. Impaired people are not unproductive as many tend
to believe. In fact, those with a disability can do some things that the others
cannot. A good example is Franklin Roosevelt who had polio and ended up being
the governor of New York and then was elected to be the president of the United
States. it is quite clear that the disabled people can do more than what most
people expect from them and they do not deserve any kind of discrimination due
to their conditions. According to my research Most countries have also discovered
the great potential in disabled people and are trying all they can to support them,
which is good thing to know.

In this lesson, I was late to attend because the slow of internet connection
though I tried to listen but the voice of my instructor is very choppy. But I
read the modules that he gave and I learned something about SPED
program. I was very appreciated those programs who support the SPED
education Especially there are law that support about this program. Sir said
that when we become a SPED teacher it’s an easy job to accommodate
those students who have behavioral issues, which is I strongly agree
especially the who have a symptom of down-syndrome and ADHD that’s
why there’s some controversy and dispute students who has disability
because most people said that they unproductive, but for me they
productive because they live in purpose. The module that I read and listen
was reflected to me because before I live with have learning disability my
development about cognitive was not fully developed especially in critical
thinking or they so-called metacognition which I do believe because I could
understand what I read and the words that I read is dancing in my brain
and I can’t focus my teacher always hates me and I was enroll in grade 1
three times, I don’t know if it’s the symptoms of dyslexia because until
know there’s some words that I couldn’t read and focus very well,
especially in spelling I could spell well but things to google and word-office
that there is auto-spell. I tried to overcome this and train myself so that I
can conquer those disabilities within my own. I do believe that I can do
this because there some actor in USA who has learning disabilities like the
actor of Harry potter the protagonist, I forget his name but I inspired so
much about him. Someday when I have opportunity to teach in SPED I do
my best to achieve their live with full of Happiness and conquer those
negativities.
