Sandra Campbell

Campbell's "Hands on the Future" project is designed to provide a career exploration opportunity for special education students by offering hands-on job training activities. Students can work with a series of structured career activities and perform real tasks of trained workers in each career using actual tools, equipment and materials. They learn a variety of jobs that expand their experience through exposure to non-traditional careers. Hands on the Future supports classroom learning by promoting the application of reading, math and other classroom skills. In addition, the program encourages independence and responsibility and helps students work toward becoming productive citizens.
