  • Introducing Your Line up of Speakers for This Year's 40Th Anniversary
    Introducing your line up of speakers for this year’s 40th Anniversary National Conference on Tourette Syndrome Plus… Edmonton, Alberta Fantasyland Hotel September 29 – October 1, 2016 Sarah Hoffman – Deputy Premier and Ministry of Health - Opening Ceremony Brad Cohen – Our Key Note Speaker Brad Cohen is an American motivational speaker, teacher, school administrator, and author who has severe Tourette syndrome (TS). Cohen described his experiences growing up with the condition in his book, Front of the Class: How Tourette Syndrome Made Me the Teacher I Never Had, co-authored with Lisa Wysocky. The book has been made into a Hallmark Hall of Fame TV movie titled Front of the Class.[ During his childhood, Cohen was accused of being a troublemaker in school and was punished by his teachers for the tics and noises caused by TS. He decided to "become the teacher that he never had". After he graduated and received his teaching certificate, 24 elementary schools rejected him before he was hired at Mountain View Elementary School in Cobb County, Georgia. As a new teacher, he was named Georgia's First Class Teacher of the Year. Dr. A.

  • The Portrayal of Tourette Syndrome in Film and Television Samantha Calder-Sprackman, Stephanie Sutherland, Asif Doja
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE COPYRIGHT ©2014 T HE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SCIENCES INC . The Portrayal of Tourette Syndrome in Film and Television Samantha Calder-Sprackman, Stephanie Sutherland, Asif Doja ABSTRACT: Objective: To determine the representation of Tourette Syndrome (TS) in fictional movies and television programs by investigating recurrent themes and depictions. Background: Television and film can be a source of information and misinformation about medical disorders. Tourette Syndrome has received attention in the popular media, but no studies have been done on the accuracy of the depiction of the disorder. Methods: International internet movie databases were searched using the terms “Tourette’s”, “Tourette’s Syndrome”, and “tics” to generate all movies, shorts, and television programs featuring a character or scene with TS or a person imitating TS. Using a grounded theory approach, we identified the types of characters, tics, and co-morbidities depicted as well as the overall representation of TS. Results: Thirty-seven television programs and films were reviewed dating from 1976 to 2010. Fictional movies and television shows gave overall misrepresentations of TS. Coprolalia was overrepresented as a tic manifestation, characters were depicted having autism spectrum disorder symptoms rather than TS, and physicians were portrayed as unsympathetic and only focusing on medical therapies. School and family relationships were frequently depicted as being negatively impacted by TS, leading to poor quality of life. Conclusions: Film and television are easily accessible resources for patients and the public that may influence their beliefs about TS. Physicians should be aware that TS is often inaccurately represented in television programs and film and acknowledge misrepresentations in order to counsel patients accordingly.

  • 1 Tourette Syndrome Is a Neurodevelopmental Disorder That
    Tourette Syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is complex and often misunderstood. This presentation will provide you with an introduction to Tourette Syndrome (TS) and to conditions that frequently occur with TS, such as Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Executive Dysfunction, and other learning disabilities. This presentation is intended for school-based professionals who may be working with students who have TS. The Association recommends that school psychologists, nurses, special education directors, and other training staff use this as a tool to educate their faculty and staff. 1 This slide is included as a reminder of how critically important teachers’ responses are to all children. We all have days that are more difficult to get through than others, but it is so important to always recognize the power teachers hold regarding a student’s academic education, as well as his or her social abilities and self-worth. The teacher is a role model for the entire class. His or her actions will often have a bigger impact than words. Demonstrating a positive attitude verbally as well as non-verbally is critically important. We are hopeful that providing information regarding this complex and highly misunderstood disorder will assist you in recognizing symptoms and providing positive supports for children with TS. 2 The office of the Tourette Association of America is located in Bayside, New York. The Association was founded in 1972 and it is the only national, voluntary, non-profit membership organization dedicated to identifying the cause, finding the cure and controlling the effects of TS. 3 Tourette Syndrome is a hereditary, neurodevelopmental disorder that is often first recognized in childhood, usually between the ages of 6 and 10.

  • The School and Social Experiences of Tourette Syndrome Through The
    The School and Social Experiences of Tourette Syndrome through the First-Person Perspective of Youth: A Theatre-Based Approach to Community-Based Research by Alan D. Jeans A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Education Department of Secondary Education University of Alberta © Alan D. Jeans, 2016 ii Abstract Tourette Syndrome Plus (TS+) is a “neuropsychiatric or brain-based condition that causes people who have it to make involuntary sounds or movements called tics” (Tourette Canada, n. d., para. 1). Individuals with TS+ may also have a number of associated disorders such as OCD, ADHD, and Anxiety Disorder. Community-based research and popular theatre activities were used in this research to explore social and educational issues that may arise for youth with TS+ aged 14-15. The topic of TS+ is viewed through social models of disability and utilizes a transformative worldview. This research explores the role of theatre in building self-advocacy skills, increasing self-confidence, and/or improving upon socialization skills for youth with TS+. Youth with TS+ participated in weekly theatre sessions to create a script that demonstrated their experiences with TS+. This script was performed to an audience of TS+ community members, as well as members of the University of Alberta community. The collaboratively created script, titled “Ditched,” follows the character of Thomas as he engages with the notions of bullying, popularity, and exclusion. This research found that youth with TS+ may carry with them internalized loneliness, guilt, and/or shame for having TS+. These internalized feelings may manifest in youths’ withdrawal from social situations, and may also impact youths’ self-confidence and their ability to self-advocate.
