Information skills and the special needs student.
Abstract
Information skills play an important role in school curriculums as students learn how to obtain information throughout their lives for leisure, academic, and vocational purposes. The special needs student presents additional challenges. Studies show that utilization of mentored learning situations can enhance development of appropriate social skills along with academic progress for special needs students. This case study was designed to teach basic information skills while mentoring a special needs student toward appropriate social behavior in the media center.
