Description
Today's young people face an ever-increasing number of tough issues and dilemmas, and for adolescents with mild disabilities, these obstacles can seem even more daunting. This comprehensive and readable book addresses the specific needs of adolescents with mild disabilities and thoroughly prepares middle and high school special educators for their role in the education of these students. Authors Jennifer M. Platt and Judy L. Olson draw on their years of experience as regular and special educators, as well as an extensive research base, to provide practical and effective strategies for teaching career and vocational preparation, motivation, academic content, communication and collaboration, school survival and study skills, transition planning, cognitive skills, and work-related social skills.
