• What are your first thoughts when you think of "disability"? What images spark in your mind when hearing disability? What might this person look like, and how might they behave?

• Reflecting more on your initial thoughts on "disability," where do you think your perspectives come from? Are these images in your mind positive, negative, neutral, or a mix? Give examples if relevant.

• Have you always held these images or have these images changed over time? Make connections to your own professional/personal experiences/observations if relevant.

• Lastly, why do you think our course title ("Exceptional Children and Adolescents") and textbook uses the term, "exceptionality" rather than "disability"? There are no right or wrong answers here.
