The Case for Teaching Social Skills in the Classroom: A Review
Cartledge, Gwendolyn; Milburn, JoAnne F.
Review of Educational Research, 48, 1, 133-56, W 78

The case is made that social behaviors are currently taught informally, that some social behaviors are important prerequisites for academic success, and that these behaviors can and should be taught systematically.
