ESTIMATION OF MOTOR AND COGNITIVE FUNCTIONING IN PERSONS WITH CEREBRAL PALSY AND PERSONS WITH MILD MENTAL RETARDATION
Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 2008, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The development of special education and rehabilitation provided significant corrections in the methodological approach of the work with disabled children and adolescents. This brought changes in the classical and the traditional point of view of their education and rehabilitation. The traditional approach classifies disabled children in specific categories. Basically, children belonging to the same category are very similar, e.g. they have more similarities than differences. The newest research in the special education and rehabilitation shows that children belonging to the same category, mutually differ more, and the group by itself is heterogeneous. This knowledge brought significant change in the methodological approach of the work with disabled children and adolescents.
