What changes would you make to resolve these issues? How could the definitions be more distinct? Use the reading assignments as a resource to support your answers.

3. Compare and contrast the reading assignments for this module with the above discussions and summarize the difficulty of categorizing the definitions for, and the challenges of, working with students with EBD.
