Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a teacher training designed in a virtual learning environment, which aims to provide teachers at the Autonomous University of Carmen (UNACAR) with the necessary knowledge to serve university students who suffer from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A correlational investigation was carried out, with a quasi-experimental design of a single group with pre- and post-test, transectional. The population is 227 full-time teachers and the sample was made up of 25 teachers belonging to all the education units that make up the institution; the selection was not probabilistic. The instrument for data collection was a questionnaire that sought to know the level of attitude of teachers. The analysis of the results of the attitude level instrument was developed by analysis by score, to test if there was a significant increase in attitude through the t-test between the pre- and post-test phase. The results obtained in relation to the level of teacher attitude towards university students with ADHD reflect a significant increase in the attitude of inclusion and attention to diversity in the classroom.
