Taking Flight

College for Students with Disabilities, Diverse Learners and Their Families

De: Perry LaRoque

Narrado por: Jerry Dugan

A learning differences expert shares stories, strategies, and information about what students with disabilities need to be successful in college. In Taking Flight, Dr. Perry T. Laroque shares his insight and expertise on a range of important issues many students with a wide range of disabilities face as they head off to college. Rather than merely focusing on the academic aspects, LaRoque addresses the full college experience, discussing the strategies and perspective needed to thrive in the classroom and beyond. With a mix of personal stories, humor, and frank advice, Perry T. LaRoque explores topics such as the concept of disability, the need for positive self-expression, college bureaucracy, roommate relationships, and having fun. Taking Flight addresses the truly relevant issues needed for happiness and success in college and teaches listeners not only how to do well in the system, but how to overcome a system that isn’t designed for today’s diverse learners.
