                    Behavior Problems*.  
Project Leader(s):  Special Education Division, BEE.  
Objectives:         To develop instructional materials in teaching
                    livelihood education for the mentally
                    retarded/children with behavior problems:  a.  To
                    validate the LEIM in selected schools; and.  b. 
                    To revise the materials based on the feedbacks
                    gathered.  
Methodology:        The LEIM prepared in a seminar/workshop where
                    SPED teachers, administrators and consultants met
                    for 10 days to determine what
                    materials/activities are suited for the MR and
                    BP.  
Background:         One of the major concerns of SPED is the
                    production of instructional materials that will
                    improve the delivery of services addressed to
                    both in-school and out-of-school children with
                    special needs.  
Expected Outcomes:  Livelihood Education Instructional Materials for
                    the Mentally Retarded, Children with behavior
                    problems and hearing disabilities.
