- Summary:
-
The handbook is designed to help teachers and administrators develop or improve vocationally oriented programs for moderately retarded students. The major topics addressed in the book were identified through a Delphi data gathering approach. Seven sections are arranged in the order that activities should occur in program modification and/or development (sample subtopics in parentheses): rationale for program development (value of work, cost benefits, legal compliance); identification of needs (role of steering committees, followup studies, identification of potential training, and employment sites); planning considerations (assessment of aptitudes, interests, and limitations); program implementation (delivery models, staff responsibilities); role of local business and industry (employment interviews, tax incentives); parent roles (participation as vocational team members, influence of development of work ethic); and service agencies' roles (interagency cooperation/coordination). An appendix presents a glossary of special and vocational education terms. (CL)
