Who I Can Be is Up to Me Programme Guide

The Who I Can Be Is Up To Me – Programme Guide promotes self-determination and coping strategies to students with learning disabilities. The programme addresses student awareness and self-advocacy needs through a series of 15 sessions.

Students learn to understand their strengths and weaknesses and become better prepared to meet the challenges they may encounter at school, at home, and in the community. They also learn how to stand up for themselves and explain their disabilities in a calm, reasoned manner in order to get the assistance or extra help they may need
in various settings.

Paired with the Student Manual Who I Can Be Is Up To Me provides helpful background information, learning objectives, and step-by-step instructions for implementing the curriculum.

"The student manual and programme guide serve as excellent resources to teach students how to become advocates for themselves and helps to make them responsible for their learning. The easy-to-use lessons can be implemented by special needs teachers, general education teachers, and/or school counselors."
