One of a series of seven modules developed to improve the knowledge and skills of vocational educators who are or will become involved in the instruction of handicapped students in regular (mainstream) classes, this module focuses on understanding attitudes and feelings involved in teaching handicapped students and on exploring ways of developing a climate of positive attitudes to support instruction of handicapped students in regular classrooms. Specifically, the purposes are (1) to understand something about attitudes and how they affect learning and other behaviors, (2) to understand the bases for attitudes which can affect success in teaching handicapped students in regular (mainstream) classes, (3) to develop practical living skills in solving problems which involve attitudes and feelings that can affect success in teaching handicapped students in regular (mainstream) classes. Information is presented in a question and answer format, with key questions underlined and with key answers set off in boxes. Exercises, comments, and examples have been integrated into the instructions to help the user organize and consolidate information which has just been presented. An assessment section is included to help the user demonstrate his/her ability to apply the information in practical ways. (Author/HD)
