Keith Jones

I saw this video previously in my SED 104 class, and it amazes me that people have such low expectations for people.  If you do not set high expectations, they will be lazy and won't want to do much with their life! If there are high expectations, they will actually learn.  This is an issue that society as a whole needs to work on.

I agree! I think that as a society we are not informed on people with special needs in general unless it affects us in some personal way like having a family member with special needs or knowing someone with special needs. I think overall people need to become more informed before they go around saying hurtful things like what was said to Keith Jones.

I agree! It is really sad how uneducated people are on these things.

I think that this shows how important it is to raise awareness of all types of disabilities whenever we have the opportunity.

Im glad to see such an intelligent and admirable person give a voice and example of what can be achieved and what expectations should be. Keith Jones is awesome!

I think every person has the same potential. If they suffer from a disability or not, some people just need more motivation and more goals. But can achieve the same things, just differently. Keith Jones sets this perfect example.

I completely agree. Society needs to be more educated and maybe this problem would go away!
