Answer to Question 1

The current federal definition includes the following:

 Significantly sub average intellectual functioning.
 Concurrent limitations of adaptive behavior skills (such as communication, home living, social skills).
 Manifestation prior to age 18 (that is, during the developmental period).

Students may describe mild, moderate, and severe/profound intellectual disabilities and the controversy over these labels. Students should address the idea that identification may change over time (for example, from mild intellectual disabilities to learning disability).
