Communication Disorders: An Individualized Program.
Vodola, Thomas M.
As one of the components of the Project ACTIVE (All Children Totally Involved Exercising) Teacher Training Model Kit, the manual is designed to enable the educator to organize, conduct, and evaluate individualized-personalized programs for children (kindergarten through high school) with communication disorders. An introductory chapter covers definitions and student and teacher behavioral objectives. Chapter II provides descriptions of the general problems manifested by children with communication disorders, suggested guidelines for the teacher, and a description of informal instruments used to assess individual student progress. A systematic procedure for assessing student progress is explained in Chapter III. Outlined in Chapter IV are suggestions and student learning experiences for visually handicapped, hard of hearing or deaf, and aphasic children. Chapter V focuses on the evaluation of student progress at the end of a specific block of time so that a decision can be made regarding subsequent programing. A final chapter includes sections which describe activities addressed to the following motor and physical factors: gross body coordination, balance and postural orientation, eye-hand coordination and accuracy, eye-foot accuracy, arm and shoulder strength, abdominal strength, explosive leg power, and cardiorespiratory endurance. Appended are such materials as a guide to the evaluation of posture and body alignment and a list of supply and equipment needs. (SBH)
