Lancioni, Giulio E. O’Reilly, Mark F. Campodonico, Francesca Serenelli, Silvia./ 2000, Anticipatory cues (vibratory stimulation activated through remote control) were used in this single-subject design study to help an adolescent with deaf-blindness and multiple disabilities to reduce his dependence on the caregiver’s physical prompts. The results show that anticipatory cues were effective in helping the adolescent perform practical daily responses independently of physical prompts. Towards the end of the study, the adolescent could also perform increasingly independently of the anticipatory cues. Implications of the findings are discussed.

This requires an improvement in teachers’ expertise at schools for children with disabilities. As part of the effort to support such an improvement in the expertise of teachers, we addressed the issue of school consultation, organized this concept, reported the actual situation in schools for children with disabilities, and assessed the signi cance of school consultation. Speci cally, the following items were assessed and discussed: 1) whether school consultation is a cooperative effort with teachers and teachers’ organizations to make the best use of shared expertise in resolving problems; 2) the effectiveness of consultation in specialized training through practical efforts; and 3) the importance of on-site training (training in the classroom) based on school consultation in improving teachers’ expertise.
