We evaluated a group instruction program for teaching a vocational skill to profoundly retarded adults. The program involved designated trainer roles and both individual student-directed and total group-directed procedures. Results indicated that, following the program, participants acquired the skill of stamping addresses on envelopes, the skill generalized across an untrained type of envelope, and the skill maintained over time. The group activity was incorporated into the regular classroom without increased disruption and the participants earned a wage for their productivity. Implications for the development of a group instruction technology for severely handicapped persons are discussed.
我们评估了一个针对重度智障成年人教授职业技能的小组指导项目。该项目涉及指定的培训师角色以及个体学生主导和全组主导的程序。结果表明,参加该项目后,参与者掌握了在信封上盖地址章的技能,该技能能推广到未经训练的信封类型,且随着时间推移得以保持。小组活动被纳入常规课堂,且未增加干扰,参与者因其工作效率获得了报酬。本文还讨论了对为重度残疾人开发小组指导技术的启示。
