Teaching Generalized Reading of Cooking Product Labels to Adolescents with Mental Disabilities through the Use of Key Words Taught by Peer Tutors.
Collins, Belva C.; And Others
Education and Training in Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, v30 n1 p65-75 Mar 1995
Four adolescents with moderate mental disabilities were taught by peers to read key words from labels of cooking products using constant time delay. Students mastered the reading of target key words in a relatively short amount of time with minimal errors, acquired some incidental learning of cooking definitions, and were able to generalize the skill.
