The two selected texts, Intellectual Disability edited by Marc J. Tass and Diane Morin, and **Understanding and Preventing Intellectual Disability** by velyne Pennetier, offer rich and complementary perspectives on intellectual disability (ID). They address the theoretical, clinical and practical aspects of this condition, while proposing concrete solutions for educators and health professionals.

Summary of the central ideas of the two texts

Intellectual Disability (Garcin, chapter 1): - Multidimensionality of the disability: Garcin emphasizes the importance of not limiting oneself to IQ, but also considering adaptive behaviors in the diagnosis of intellectual disability. - Classification and diagnosis: The differences between the classification systems (DSM-5 and ICD-10) are essential to personalize interventions. - Individualized intervention strategies**: Each person with ID requires a customized intervention to optimize their development.

Understanding and Preventing Intellectual Disability (Pennetier): - Causes and Classification: Pennetier examines the genetic and environmental causes of ID, classifying ID according to levels of severity (mild, moderate, severe, profound). - Prevention and Early Intervention: The importance of prevention through strategies such as prenatal care and parenting. - Adaptive Behavior and Educational Interventions: Emphasis is placed on the development of communication, self-care, and social skills for greater autonomy.

Justification for Text Choices Both texts are essential for educators working with students with intellectual disabilities. Garcin's chapter provides a solid foundation for understanding the clinical and behavioral aspects of ID, allowing for better adaptation of educational practices. Pennetier, on the other hand, provides a preventive perspective and an analysis of intervention strategies, while emphasizing the importance of adaptive behaviors.

Major challenges addressed in both texts Challenge 4: Promoting autonomy Both texts emphasize the importance of developing the independence of students with ID. Garcin highlights the role of adaptive behaviors, while Pennetier emphasizes the importance of early interventions to allow children to actively participate in their own development. This challenge is central for teachers, who must develop teaching methods that encourage students to take initiative.

Challenge 8: Valuing differences Both authors agree on the need to recognize and integrate individual distinctions in educational contexts. Garcin and Pennetier propose that the diversity of needs should be a source of enrichment for the learning environment, emphasizing the importance of creating an inclusive framework that respects differences.

Other relevant challenges - Challenge 5: Mastery and self-improvement: Both texts emphasize the need to set realistic goals while aiming for continuous progress for each learner. - Challenge 12: Focus on Excellence: By setting high standards and providing tailored support, educators can help each student reach their full potential.

Conclusion These two texts provide a thorough understanding of intellectual disability, both in terms of classification and diagnosis as well as educational and preventive strategies. They are crucial for educators seeking to create inclusive, adapted, and autonomy-promoting learning environments for students with intellectual disabilities. T
