Videotaped segments from a regular education world geography class were used in teaching three learning-disabled ninth grade students to generalize question-asking and answering skills. Training procedures implemented in a learning resource room were effective in improving generalization of target skills and increasing accuracy scores on…

The generalization of specific social skills to new environments by four elementary aged learning-disabled students was studied using a modified multiple baseline, single-subject research design. During one spring semester, each student was trained for 12 weeks in the use of a specific social skill (such as compliance, cooperative play, or…

This study evaluated the transfer of decoding skills from a code-emphasis program that used a controlled text to a literature-based basal reading series consistent with the whole language approach. Participants were 11 elementary students with learning disabilities who received reading instruction in a resource program. Results found students…

Three learning disabled fourth-grade students who asked few questions in their mainstream class viewed videotaped exemplars of question-asking, received structured opportunities for rehearsing question-asking, and received feedback. The resource room training procedures were effective in increasing the level of question-asking and in improving…

Four junior high aged students (three behaviorally disordered and one learning disabled) received self-management training, without the external control of a token program. The self-evaluation procedures reduced students' off-task and disruptive behaviors in the resource room, but there was little or no spontaneous generalization to the students'…
