The module provides instruction on: (1) the target audience for the CAITE program; (2) current federal legislation for educating handicapped children; (3) definitions for "handicapped children" and "special education"; (4) reasons for early identification of children requiring special educational programs; (5) labeling of exceptional children; (6) cautions to be considered when labeling children; (7) differences between a "disability" and a "handicap"; and (8) use of the term "behavior" throughout the CAITE modules. Subsequent modules in the set deal with: testing, information gathering, individual differences, specific disabilities, and the intentions and implementation of goals identified in Public Law 94-142.
