teachers, a lack of motivation has long been one of the most

Explain the difference between a handicap and disability in your own


words.

 The difference between handicapped and disabled is that to be a


handicap is to have not as much opportunities to be involved in
activities as compared to the majority of the population whereas to be
disabled is to have a lack of ability in carrying out an activity that is
considered normal by the community.Also, handicap is considered as
a disadvantage or a difficulty while disability is considered as a
condition or an inability. A disability can also be explained as a
reduced capacity of an individual to specifically perform a movement,
execute a cognitive function or to detect certain sensory
information.On the other hand, handicap mainly focuses on the
obstacles experienced by an individual due to some restrictions in the
environment. In other words, the effect of a disability is a handicap.
