programming demonstrate improved knowledge and attitudes about learners with ADHD? Experimental Research Method The research method selected for this study is a quasi-experimental design, which is based on the fact
that randomization of the sampling cannot be achieved due to the need to assess an intervention that has to occur in the school settings. This experimental research method utilizes
a pre-test/post-test approach, which assesses educator knowledge and beliefs prior to participation in an in-service program, and the same knowledge and beliefs after participation (or non-participation, but after the same
duration of time, for the control group) (Shuttleworth, 2009). This method is utilized because it allows for the assessment of a treatment, in this case the use of
an in-service program, and the benefits that can be derived in relation to educator knowledge and attitudes, as assessed through the use of the Knowledge About ADHD (KADD) assessment (Hepperlen
et al., 2002). Hypothesis The research hypothesis for this study is: Teachers that go through informational in-service training on ADHD and ADHD-related programming will demonstrate increased
knowledge and attitudes about learners with ADHD as measured through the Knowledge About ADHD (KADD) assessment, as compared to teachers who did not participate in the program. The
alternative hypothesis is: Teachers that go through informational in-service training on ADHD and ADHD-related programming will demonstrate decreased knowledge and attitudes about learners with ADHD as measured through the
Knowledge About ADHD (KADD) assessment as compared to teachers who did not participate in the program. The null hypothesis is: Teachers that go through informational in-service training
on ADHD and ADHD-related programming will not demonstrate significant changes in knowledge and attitudes about learners with ADHD as measured through the Knowledge About ADHD (KADD) assessment as compared to
