business schools and t o equip t he st udent s
t oward int ellect ual disabilit ies t ransit ion int o
t he adult world.

limit ed t o providing t he skills t o underst and,
but t here are also schools t hat have at t empt ed
t o send of f t heir st udent s f or a f ield work.

already be used as a map of t he init ial
requirement t hat t he program's t ransit ion t o
adult hood.
4. The research f rom Arnet t , 2007; Gut mann et

Hallahan, 2011: 624-625) suggest s t hat when

5. The result of t his survey is t o be a
st art ing point f or a more comprehensive

lif e skill program t hat covers bot h
f unct ional academic skill and self det erminat ion development .

1.

The t eachers have not yet seen t hat self det erminat ion skill is anot her part of t he
t ransit ion program int o adult hood.

2.

They have been t hinking t hat lif e skills are t he
only component of t he program.

3.

For most t eachers, t he ef f ect iveness of a
t ransit ion program int o adult hood is indicat ed
by t he lif e skills being achieved by t he st udent s
wit h int ellect ual disabilit y.

4.

The st udent s, however, need t o be equipped by
int egrat ed social compet encies, workplace
experience, leisure t ime ut ilizat ion, self est eem, societ y’s accept ance, and self det erminat ion.
