            <description><![CDATA[People with ADD and ADHD struggle to manage their time and be productive and efficient.  One way I've personally found to be more productive and efficient is through the use of a software program called Action Enforcer.  It's a series of timers that run in Flash on your PC.  The program allows you to schedule your major daily activities in one interface, with a timer for each activity planned.  You set the timers for the completion of each task and it tracks your total time spent on each task.  Action Enforcer is a terrific tool for Time Management and even better for those of us with ADHD that are focus challenged.  Click Here to Learn more...  ]]></description>

            <title>Aspergers Syndrome: Answers to Frequently Asked Questions  </title>
            <link>http://www.adhd-planner.com/w3c/aspergers-syndrome-answers-to-a15.html</link>
            <description><![CDATA[If your child has recently been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, then you likely have more questions than answers about this little-known diagnosis.

This article presents answers to some of parents' most common questions about Aspergers Syndrome.

 

What IS Aspergers Syndrome?

 

Aspergers Syndrome, named for Hans Asperger, an Austrian physician, is a milder form of autistic disorder. Both conditions are part of a larger group of neurological disorders known in the US as Pervasive Developmental Disorders, or PDD for short. The 2 most common symptoms are eccentric behavior and self-imposed social isolation. Sometimes speech is affected as well as gait and motor skills. Your child may also be exclusively focused on a particular area of interest, such as cars or astronomy. The social isolation comes from the child wanting to know everything about his or her area of interest and little else. Conversations are usually focused only on that area as well. ]]></description>

            <title> The Inner Heart and Soul of Teaching </title>
            <link>http://www.adhd-planner.com/w3c/the-inner-heart-a14.html</link>
            <description><![CDATA[Everybody seems to think of teaching as teaching &quot;something.&quot; Usually, there's a subject. There is a syllabus. Usually there is also some kind of timeframe. The teacher is supposed to impart a certain body of knowledge in a certain period of time to a certain group of people.

When you have embodied these qualities as a teacher, you can teach anywhere, to anybody. However, you may actually find that those you &quot;teach&quot; actually &quot;learn&quot; something more important than the subject of the class. Then you're truly participating in the Inner Soul of Teaching.
