Self-Determination Interventions for Students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Transitioning to Postsecondary Education: A Scoping Review

Students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs) need a myriad of independent living skills to seamlessly transition to postsecondary education. One of these skills is self-determination. Self-determination is deemed as a combination of knowledge and skills that enables a person to become autonomous. So, the purpose of this scoping review was to explore the interventions that promote self-determination in students with IDDs as they transition to postsecondary education in USA. Arksey’s and O’Malley’s framework guided this scoping review paper. An electronic search was conducted using IU OneSearch. The search was restricted to peer-reviewed studies, books, and eBooks published in English language between 2010 to 2022. Studies were screened at the title and abstract levels, and at full-text level by the author. In total, two studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Findings showed that curriculum-based and community-based interventions had remarkable potentials in promoting self-determination in students with IDDs who were transitioning to postsecondary education. Implications for research include developing and implementing more curriculum-based and community-based interventions; measuring treatment integrity through checklists; describing implementation procedures to allow for replication studies to be conducted; and utilizing a mixed-methods research design in intervention studies.

Increasing Self-Determination for Students with Disabilities Using the Ask.Explore.Connect Discussion Tool

Self-determination and self-advocacy are critical skills for students with disabilities (SWD). Around the world, practitioners and educators express concerns that students transitioning from school to post-high school settings often lack the awareness to discuss their strengths, preferences, and needs. To improve self-determination, a one-year randomized controlled trial design was utilized with high school students with high incidence disabilities (n = 198). These students matched on key variables before being randomly assigned to their respective groups. Both treatment and control groups received regular tiered transition services, activities, and support while the control group also received the Ask.Explore.Connect self-determination instruction and intervention. Results demonstrate that discussions are an effective practice to increase student self-determination. Treatment students had greater increases in self-determination than the control group across all disability categories and service levels. Benefits of the tool and intervention allowed for increased self-advocacy, self-determination, choice-making and social skills, field testing of evidence-based best practices, and use of authentic settings.

THE STRUCTURE AND CONTENT OF THE BASICS OF TRANSLATION COMPETENCE OF STUDENTS OF SENIOR SPECIALIZED CLASSES

The integration of profi le-oriented training at the senior stages of school education is aimed at professional self-determination of students. The results of the educational process are defi ned in the relevant regulatory legal documents, on the basis of which the modern system of education is built. According to the requirements refl ected in these documents, the state currently sees the need to teach high school students how to work with textual information as a way of transmitting existing knowledge, for communication, and as a tool for receiving new information, in order to enrich existing knowledge. Such an organization of the learning process is aimed at creating a unifi ed educational space and establishing interdisciplinary connections. According to the requirements of the standards, students of specialized classes must be taught written profi le-oriented translation of popular scientifi c texts. However, in the available scientifi c research on the topic of teaching translation, the question of teaching this type of speech activity directly from a professional point of view is most widely disclosed. The authors argue that it is wrong to talk about the formation of translation competence in the framework of training in a specialized high school class, but it is possible to form the foundations of translation competence. Taking into account the generally accepted structural and content composition of translation competence, the peculiarities of the organization of the learning process in the senior profi le school and the subject results of profi le and noncore subjects (using the example of a socio-economic profi le with a profi le subject “Economics”), the structural and content composition of the foundations of translation competence in the form of three components: linguistic, subject-oriented and information-orientedtechnological, which are implemented in the process of forming the required competence in three aspects: cognitive, activity and analytical.

PROFESSIONALLY ORIENTED FOREIGN LANGUAGE TRAINING IN THE SYSTEM OF SECONDARY VOCATIONAL EDUCATION ON THE BASIS OF CLIL APPROACH

The study identifi es principles, requirements, didactic tools and materials that ensure the students’ mastering FL professional communication and the professional self-determination of students in the process of specialized FL training in the SVE system. It has been established that the electronic educational training manual on information technology and telecommunication systems, based on the CLIL approach, developed in the course of study has proven its effectiveness. The proposed principles, stages and content of teacher and student activities ensure the integrity of educational and personality developmental aspects of professionally-oriented FL training of SVE students, parallel and simultaneous mastery of all types of speech activity in the process of solving problem quasi-professional tasks in a specialized fi eld, and can be successfully used in a real educational process in a FL class at a SVE institution.
