Teaching Children with Learning Difficulties via Community-Based Rehabilitation Projects in rural Sri Lanka

Abstract

Teachers in rural Sri

The enormous economic burden of slow learners

“…In a study conducted in rural Sri Lanka, it was suggested that students with learning difficulties actively engage in learning when an integrated approach utilising thematic units reflecting the students' world is used along with a behavioural approach to teaching-learning. [6] In future, the economics of this approach or other similar models can be studied in the Indian setting especially for rural non-English speaking children.…”
