Improving Education Today: The Deep Dive

   Your Podcast Hosts Angela and Davey discuss Dr. Howie Knoff's most recent Blog (Part II of a comprehensive Series) from Project ACHIEVE Educational Solutions. This Podcast(and the Blog) explains the difference between common headaches and migraines, highlighting how migraines are a distinct neurological condition with more severe and complex symptoms.     They then describe the significant academic, social, and emotional challenges students face due to migraines, including cognitive difficulties and inconsistent attendance.     Davey and Angela then overview the brain structures, chemical systems, and neurological pathways involved generally in migraines. They then compare and contrast four specific types of migraines (ocular/retinal, vestibular, concussion-related, and stress/PTSD) in terms of their symptoms, underlying mechanisms, diagnosis, and management.   While emphasizing that the differential diagnoses of these migraine types must be rendered by medical professionals, Angela and Davey note that—when interacting with studentsexhibiting headaches or migraines in school settings, MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) Team members in schools should still understand their clinical similarities and differences. . . at the very least, so that they can ask informed questions when conferring with parents and—with permission—medical professionals.    Check out this NEWEST Podcast. . . and “Follow” us so that you get notified when every new podcast is released.
