The Hidden Curriculum - Teaching What is Meaningful
In this DVD, Brenda Smith Myles discusses, using numerous examples - many of them humorous - the major topics of the book of the same title, co-authored by Melissa L. Trautman and Ronda L. Schelvan. The DVD offers practical suggestions and advice for how to teach and learn those subtle messages that most people seem to pick up almost automatically but that have to be directly taught to individuals with social-cognitive challenges. Given the serious consequences that can befall a person who violates a social rule, the strategies discussed here make this a much-needed resource.
