The LEIC is a FASD planning tool, guided by a neurodevelopmental approach to planning and endorsed by the Provincial Outreach Program for FASD. The research in this study explores the lived experiences of six B.C. teachers as they have used the LEIC in past practice and reflect on future use. This mixed-methods study also looks at data gathered in a cross-sectional survey design where a further 27 teachers responded to questions about the LEIC. The findings indicated that the teachers felt that the tool was a useful document however, certain factors inhibited comprehensive and effective use in some cases. The data suggested that frequency of use and bi-modal training methods increased effective practice as well as depth-of-understanding in planning for a student with FASD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
