Project TELEPAC: The Telephone as an Instructional Communication Device for Parents of Handicapped Children and Youth.
Hertlein, Forest J. C.
Project TELEPAC utilized the telephone to provide access to professional skills by parents of handicapped children located throughout Utah and the loan of self instructional packages designed to teach self help and academic skills. Parents called the center on a toll free number and reported satisfaction with the project. Staff members used the system to evaluate the instructional packages. A telephone based delivery system is appropriate for areas that face problems such as limited availability of professionals and limitations imposed by time and distance. (DB)
