Artifact 1: Case Study- Student With Home Problem

This case study is a real experience at school in my country Saudi Arabia. It will tell you about the cultural background about gender, law, a system of education and the role of the teacher in the classroom. The girl Yara was an excellent student, but the conflict between her parents and their divorce reflected in her school work. In my country Saudi Arabia, leach family has a cultural secret or personality they do not reveal. Sometimes a teacher may try to discover why a child has a learning disability, but more often than not, it is a closely guarded secret. Moreover, in Saudi Arabia if there is a divorce the children stay with a woman if they young but if they are around 15 years old a boy may choose if he wants to stay with his mother or father but if the child is a girl, she is usually compelled to stay with her father. It is however a personal decision. But in this case, Yara stays with her father and her father is rather indifferent about her and she stays with her stepmother. Her stepmother does not take care of her She does not check her about homework or clean clothes or wearing warm clothes in the winter. This case study is a real situation I from a school in Saudi Arabia. The main point of this case study is to highlight the need for teachers to spot the reason a sudden change in performance at school and make attempts to try to solve the problem. Also parents must try their best to keep their children feel secure and cared for and be wary of any adverse effects due to family strife.
