Critically analyse a current educational policy and outline its underlying ideological narrative, and its impact

Select a current educational policy, or part thereof (preferably national or local), that pertains to an area of educational focus you are familiar with eg. Early Childhood Education, Primary science, Behaviour management, Secondary IT, student wellbeing etc. Critically analyse the policy (or part thereof) in terms of its underlying ideological narrative, and its impact in relation to a specific school context of your choice (eg. placement observation). Comment on and critique how the policy was enacted / responded to in this context. Remember there are complex processes at play between policy prescription and professional practice. Draw on scholarly works to guide your analysis of the potential effectiveness of the policy for a school community in relation to the specific context you choose. Clearly you are invited to take a justified, professional and ethical position in this work

Case Study. Present a case study about a patient with a memory impairment as a neuropsychologists. Diagnose the patient and provide rehabilitative suggestions.

Case studies

This exercise requires all your imaginative capacity and a lot of effort but I hope it is going to be both formative and amusing. You are going to present a case study about a patient with a memory impairment. In this assignment you are the neuropsychologists who need to diagnose the patient and provide rehabilitative suggestions. Case presentations will be done in group of 3-4 people using PPT presentations (or any other presentation software).
Ideally, the presentation should be organized as follows:
1. Case introduction
First, describe the patient and the reason behind the visit. It is often useful to use the patient’s own words. Next, we introduce the important information that we obtained from our history-taking. We don’t need to include every detail – just the information that helped us to settle on our diagnosis. I suggest avoiding complex cases or, at least, to avoid symptoms and signs that could make the characterization of the disorder too confusing (e.g. a patient can have both a memory disorder and auditory hallucinations following a brain disorder but I would avoid mentioning the second symptom if you want to characterize a memory disorder). If you find a neuro-radiological exam (e.g. MRI, TAC, PET) of the disorder you are presenting, please show it to the class and highlight the damaged area (try looking on published single case papers).
2. Assessment
A brief description of the cognitive assessment conducted on the patient. Describe at least 1 neuropsychological test you conducted on the patient and the reason of your choice.
3. Differential diagnosis
List other conditions that present similar clinical features and exclude them on the basis of your clinical reasoning process.
At this point, ask your audience what memory component is afflicted and let them guess which disorder you are presenting.
4. Overview of the diagnosed disorder
Now that the diagnosis has been made, provide a brief excursus of the disorder (History, etiology, epidemiology, treatments and usual outcome).
