Teaching Leisure Skills to Adolescents with Moderate Disabilities

Abstract

Four leisure skills (i.e., playing cards, selecting a television program, playing a sports videotape, and playing a computer game) were taught to four secondary students with moderate disabilities in a collaborative project developed by a university investigator, a special education teacher, and an English teacher. The special education teacher used a system of least prompts procedure to teach the targeted skills, and nondisabled peers from an advanced English class assessed generalization across persons on an intermittent schedule. The results indicate that the collaborative project had benefits to both groups of students that included an increase in positive attitudes of the nondisabled peers toward their peers with disabilities.
