    DSTRUCI'OR: Dr. Leone Prock
    Thursdays, 4:30 - 8:30 ?
    LOCATION: On Campus
    The Education 424 program is designed as the laboratory extension
    of Education 422. Course content will emphasize procedures of
    assessment 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 4-6 hours per week, especially
    during the months of February and March, for these activities. Tutoring
    time (outside of class time) will be arranged individually by the Education
    424 student and the child s/he selects.
    Details of the tutoring program, and other course requirements will be
    explicated at the first class meeting.
