Competing demands of school and home can thrust adolescent mothers into stressful situations. Meeting the requirements to achieve academically can be a challenge, especially for students previously identified as "slow learners." These students may conclude that academic achievement is an impossibility. How can special educators and service providers help? What environmental variables affect these young mothers' learning capabilities? This study used a case study research approach to study 10 African-American adolescent mothers who were already at risk of dropping out of school programs. Successful strategies to keep these students in school include school-based clinics, teacher training, sex education, and school-community support.
学校和家庭的多重需求可能会将青春期母亲置于压力重重的境地。满足学业要求可能是一项挑战,尤其是对于之前被认定为“学习缓慢者”的学生而言。这些学生可能会认为学业有成是不可能的。特殊教育工作者和服务提供者能如何提供帮助?哪些环境变量会影响这些年轻母亲的学习能力?本研究采用案例研究方法,对10名有辍学风险的非裔美国青春期母亲进行了研究。让这些学生继续留在学校的成功策略包括校内诊所、教师培训、性教育以及学校与社区的支持。
