Provide Recommendations for Student-Athletes with Learning Disabilities
Instructions
At any given time, high school student-athletes will visit a post-secondary institution to explore their options for furthering their education. It is not unusual for them to request information about the resources and accommodations available for students with learning disabilities so they can carefully evaluate their options when choosing a college. So it’s important to have prepared a simple means of information, such as a pamphlet, that outlines accommodations for student-athletes with learning disabilities so they know what resources are available and how to access them.
For this assignment you will create a pamphlet suitable as a resource for an athletic department to distribute to student-athletes with learning disabilities. Include strategies that the counselors can use to help these student-athletes succeed in a university setting. This informational tool will inform and guide the student-athlete of your institution’s academic accommodations.
Include the following in your pamphlet:
Academic support and career development mission
Academic services available
Available academic accommodations
Additional support services and alternative accommodation
Student-athlete development programs established
In addition to the pamphlet, provide the required NCAA forms necessary for documentation purposes that are required to be completed for every student-athlete with a learning disability.
Length: 2–4 pages (front-and-back trifold brochure)
References: Minimum 3–5 scholarly resources.
Your pamphlet should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Review APA Form and Style.
