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.
