GENIUS HOUR

MODE- Informational
MEDIA- Website
AUDIENCE- Anyone interested in learning about ADHD, parents who have children with ADHD, elementary/middle/high school staff
PURPOSE- To allow people to see interesting and important facts about ADHD that I feel like everyone should know
SITUATION- My brother has a more severe case of ADHD, and I have noticed that many people don't seem to understand that he acts the way he does because of it. I hope to show people who think that his ADHD is "just him being a kid" that it is a valid disorder and that he is to be treated different than other kids his age.

What did you research and why?
I researched ADHD, how gender can affect it, causes of it, and how it can be treated.

What did you create and why?
I created a website because I felt like it was the best way to express the facts and information that I want to share with others.
