Parents And The School-to-Work Transition Of Special Needs Youth Parents and the schoolto-Work Transition of special needs Youth Add to this the unique and complicated counseling needs of students with disabilities http://www.kidsource.com/kidsource/content4/special.needs.trans.html
Extractions: The school-to-work transition of the nation's youth has been a major focus of vocational education efforts for the past decade. Educators help students identify their interests and abilities, engage in career education and career development activities, and develop individual education plans. Although these activities are significant, their comprehensiveness and effectiveness are limited by staff and time. "The ratio of students to counselors in public high schools is almost 300 to 1; and school guidance counselors are able to spend less than one hour of every five on career counseling" (Otto 1989, p. 161). Add to this the unique and complicated counseling needs of students with disabilities and it becomes apparent that other actors, primarily parents, must be included in the school-to-work transition of youth. Will defines transition as "an outcome-oriented process encompassing a broad array of services and experiences that lead to employment" (Friedenberg et al. 1993, p. 235). The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) of 1990 defines transition services as "a coordinated set of activities for a student, designed within an outcome-oriented process, which promotes movement from school to post-school activities, including postsecondary education, vocational training, integrated employment (including supported employment), continuing and adult education, adult services, independent living, or community participation" (ibid.). This ERIC DIGEST looks at the challenges of effecting successful transitions, particularly for students with disabilities, and parents' roles in the transition process.

GDC Do Gifted Students Have Special Needs Do Gifted students Have special needs? Linda Kreger Silverman, Ph.D. Gifted students may be high achievers or they may be high school dropouts. http://www.gifteddevelopment.com/Articles/Do Gifted Students Have Special Needs.
Extractions: Denver, Colorado Every gift contains a danger. Whatever gift we have we are compelled to express. And if the expression of that gift is blocked, distorted, or merely allowed to languish, then the gift turns against us, and we suffer. (Johnson, 1993, p. 15) In order to understand the true meaning of giftedness, it is necessary that we separate the concept from achievement. High achievers are those who are motivated to do well in school. Gifted students may be high achievers or they may be high school dropouts. They have learning needs that differ from other students, just as developmentally delayed students have different learning needs. When giftedness is seen as the mirror image of retardation, it becomes clear that we have a responsibility to meet their needs, whether or not they are high achievers. So how can teachers meet the needs of gifted students? 1) First of all, ask the students! Engage the students in academic planning. It is amazing what a heart-to-heart talk with a gifted student will reveal. 2) Assess what they have already learned before teaching them. There is no use in relearning what one already knows. This can be done by looking at achievement test scores, giving them pre-tests of the material to be covered, informal talks about the subject matter or teacher-constructed diagnostic tests.

Back To School Tips students who do more homework, on average, do better in school. Do you need special resources (eg. a trip to the library or access to a computer)? http://www.mbteach.org/back to school/backtoschooltips.htm
Extractions: Back to School Homework Tips Children learn as much out of school as they do in school. They learn things at home and in their community. Children learn a great deal from their parents, and parents are important partners in the learning experience. Parental interest, common sense, and a few basic skills can help make school a successful learning experience for children. Homework is assigned by teachers for many reasons. It can give students extra practice time, apply information learned, and help them expand their knowledge beyond what learned in class. Assignments are also a good way for children to learn to work independently. Homework assignments can also help students work on bigger projects, learn about other resources, like encyclopaedias and the web, and visit libraries.
