Amanda Moore - Researching Skills for Learning About Your Child
...
Presenter: Amanda Moore, Hendrix College Library Director
One important way to cope with your family's learning and/or medical issues is by using relevant published research to help you cope with, or (in conjunction with licensed professionals) treat the situation.
As parents of children with Asperger's Syndrome know, information about the condition has changed greatly over the last few years.
How can you identify reliable information and advice?
How can you find information useful to you as a parent, or to your child's teachers, or to your child's health professionals?
In this short presentation, Amanda will describe a few of the research
resources available to you at local libraries and on the Internet.
She will also briefly describe a few of the things she as a professional librarian does to help people use the most relevant and reliable information sources, whatever the source.
If you have some issues that you have had difficulty researching, email them to Amanda at amanda.moore@mac.com before May 16th, and as a part of
the presentation Amanda may be able to recommend a few additional resources for researching your specific concern.
