• Resumen

  • The appearance of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in schoolchildren isconstantly increasing and despite the effort that has been put on recognizing it,studies that focus on the social seclusion these students suffer are still underdeveloped.The Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder syndrome and its symptoms,seem of great importance in this regard, due to the personality characteristicsof this type of boys and girls, whose cognitive deficits particularly impact sociallife. The research presented includes, in addition to an exhaustive review of thescientific literature on ADHD , the Wiki Tool and school psychology guidelines onthis particular subject, a proposed intervention model based on PBworks WikiTool. The intervention model deals with the completion of a cooperative project byschool classrooms of 1st , 2nd and 3rd grade students of a Junior High-school ofHeraklion Crete Greece, in each of which there is at least one student with ADHD.The study aims at the extraction of the improvement level of cooperation andcommunication of students during their work on Pbworks, with the help of SPSSStatistics Software. The project includes also collecting teachers’ opinions before,during and after the intervention, as well as on-spot observation of the processes.The discussion will seek feedback on the suitability of the intervention model andits adjustment to the specific needs of this type of children.
