The Education 42

+ program is designed as the laboratory extension of
Education 1+22. Course content will emphasize procedures of assess-
ment and instructional programming that may optimally increase the
achievement levels of learning disabled students.
Program topics will include: provision of a safe environment; controlled
instruction; assessment; record-keeping and data management; task
analysis; perceptual and cognitive skill development; "invention"
techniques for treatment; behaviour management.
A major course requirement involves tutoring a learning disabled child.
Class members should plan to schedule
1+ -
6 hours per week, especially
during the months of February and March, for these activities. Tutoring
time will be arranged individually by the Education
1
+24 student and
the child he selects.
Details of the tutoring program, and other course requirements will
be explicated at the first class meeting.
