Social skills of Slovenian primary school students with learning disabilities

Social skills of students with special needs play a very important role in their successful integration into inclusive learning environments. The aim of present empirical research was to establish whether students with learning disabilities (LD) attending grades 7–9 of regular primary school in Slovenia experience difficulties in social skills compared to their peers without LD. The following measuring instruments were used: the Questionnaire about Interpersonal Difficulties for Adolescents, the Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescents and the Self-Concept Scale. The basic research findings indicated statistically significant structural differences between the students with LD and their peers. The two groups differ in terms of difficulties in social interaction. Students with LD experience more difficulties. Statistically significant differences between the groups also appeared in tension and inhibition in social contact and social anxiety, as well as in the area of self-concept: students with LD are more anxious and reserved in social contacts.     

论职业教育的社会认同和职业教育发展之间的关系

一些人认为职业教育的社会认同和职业教育的发展是一种因果关系，只要通过教育或法令的形式来提高人们对职业教育的社会认同，就能促进职业教育的发展，摆脱职业教育目前发展的困境，作者认为这种观点是是怀疑的，需要探讨几个问题。首先，目前人们对职业教育的社会认同感是否正确，有没有更改的必要，其次是能不能更改，再次是即使人们对职业教育的社会认同感提高了，职业教育的发展状况就一定能够改善吗？通过对职业教育发展历史的回顾，作者认为，不是人们对职业教育的社会认同促进了职业教育的发展，而是职业教育的发展促进了人们对职业教育的社会认同，前者的错误在于把一系列的偶然的联系当作了必然的因果。

中国近代职业教育发展过程中社会心理因素的变迁

从较高层次的理性的角度看，中国近代人们对职业教育态度的变迁大致可分为三个阶段，即从抗拒排斥到功利性很强的选择接受，再到对教育制度、教育思想的认同；从较低层次的情绪化层面看，个体对职业教育价值的判断却保持着一种强烈的稳定性。

转型时期高等职业教育的文化性格与张力

高等职业教育的文化性格具有观念上的互通性、精神上的交融性和使命上的耦合性。其文化缺陷表现为“层次文化与类别文化的冲突”、“科学文化与人文文化的冲突”、“术理文化与学理文化的冲突”、“中聚文化与边延文化的冲突”、“校本文化与人本文化的冲突”。其文化张力表现为：定位观由“教育层次”向“教育类型”扩张;目标观由“技术工具”向“技术人文”扩张;教学观由“工学分离”向“工学结合”扩张;人才观由“意识主导”向“逻辑主导”扩张;生存观由“内涵发展”向“内质发展”扩张。     

Psychometric characteristics of a sexuality education survey for teachers of secondary school students with learning disabilities in Malaysia

Delivery of sexuality education to secondary school students in Malaysia started since 1989. However, this area of education was neglected for secondary students with learning disabilities. Therefore, in order to explore their needs for sexuality education, society's perceptions especially teachers’ towards this matter should be considered. To achieve this objective, it is important to conduct a needs analysis on teachers’ perceptions towards this topic. An instrument with good psychometric properties is needed to obtain consistent and reliable information. This paper describes the development and psychometric testing of the Sexuality Education Survey for Teachers of Secondary School Students with Learning Disabilities (SES). SES showed acceptable content validity, construct validity, and achieved satisfactory reliability. The instrument also has good stability (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.95) to be adopted as an instrument for analysing the health and sexuality education needs of secondary students with learning disabilities in Malaysia.

Community-based vocational rehabilitation (CBVR) for people with disabilities: experiences from a pilot project in Nigeria

This article discusses the community-based vocational rehabilitation (CBVR) of persons with disabilities. In 1991, a pilot project was instituted by the International Labour Organisation and the United Nations Development Programme in conjunction with Oyo State Government in Nigeria. The aim was to facilitate the reintegration of persons with disabilities into their communities after a vocational rehabilitation programme. This project has resulted in the successful training of about 155 individuals with disabilities since its inception and a number of the trainees have benefited from a revolving loan scheme. The initial seven areas of vocational training have, over the years, expanded to 24. Recently, the project has been introduced to six other states in Nigeria. Various problem-solving strategies have been employed in the course of the project as the need arose and the community-based vocational rehabilitation programme has proved to be a success in Nigeria so far. In this paper, Eunice Alade, associate professor in the Department of Special Education, Kenyatta University, Kenya, provides an evaluation of an innovative alternative approach to vocational rehabilitation for people with disabilities. She discusses some of the problems experienced in Nigeria and offers suggestions about how to sustain the work. Her ideas will be of direct interest to those seeking to promote social inclusion in developing countries and elsewhere around the world.

Helping students with cognitive disabilities improve social writing skills through email modeling and scaffolding

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of email modeling and scaffolding on the social writing quality of students with cognitive disabilities. Ten students from a university-affiliated lab school (mean age = 19.3; SD = 1.2) with an average of IQ of 55.30 (SD = 5.98) and 10 teacher candidates in a university teacher education programme participated in the study. The results suggest that all students with intellectual disabilities were able to holistically improve their social writing quality after exchanging emails with mature writers over a period of 15 weeks. Specifically, the students progressively showed various degrees of improvement in the areas of writing mechanics, lexical and syntactic complexity, writing cohesion, pragmatic propriety and writing motivation. However, the figurative use of language remained unaffected by the email modeling and scaffolding. Taken together, this study suggests that Internet-mediated formats, such as email, can reduce the anxiety of students with intellectual disabilities. Students feel more motivated to engage in writing and do so more actively in social media exchanges, thus improving their virtual social communication skills through writing. Teaching implications of this study are discussed.     

Academic self-efficacy,sense of coherence,hope and tiredness among college students with learning disabilities

Abstract

Some resilient students with LD succeed ‘against the odds’ and reach college. The goals of the study are to explore their resources and barriers during their studies. The relationships between academic self-efficacy (ASE) and personal resources (sense of coherence (SOC) and hope) among college students with learning disabilities (LD) will be examined. The sample consisted of 438 college students divided into two subgroups: 149 students with LD and 289 Non-LD students. Results indicated that college students with LD reported lower levels of ASE, as well as lower levels of hope subscales and SOC. Persistent challenges of early learning distress experienced by those students during school periods continue to be prevalent during their college years. The ASE was predicted by the personal resources, and the risk factor (tiredness lost its significance). The importance of personal resources (SOC and hope subscales) was further emphasised by the mediation model (PROCESS). They mediated the relationships between LD and ASE. These outcomes call for empowering interventional programmes in order to promote hopeful thinking and personal coherence.
