Community Success CD-ROM - Win-Mac

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Use the computer to prepare for community outings!

Learning appropriate social interactions is complex. What do you say to a store clerk? Who gets off the elevator first? When do you give a hairdresser a tip? How do you request a table at a restaurant? Community independence also requires mastering step-by-step sequences. For example, find crosswalk, push "walk" button, wait for "walk" sign, look both ways, stay in crosswalk. Community Success CD-ROM addresses both social considerations and step-by-step instructions. Realistic and detailed illustrations, instructive auditory cues and easy to use interface give students the opportunity to rehearse skills before they go out. Activities are presented in clear and logical sequences. Social skills picture both "good" and "not so good" behaviors. Community Success CD-ROM organizes 45 activities into six categories: Shopping, transportation, eating out, important places, any place and appointments. The activities range from basic (using restrooms) to complex (grocery shopping). Create a sequence of activities to reflect an actual outing, or have the student "explore" on their own. Print colorful illustrations of social skills and instructional steps for classroom use or as community cues. System Requirements: Windows-Pentium with Windows 95 or later Macintosh-Power Mac
