Methods : Among the children attending a Child Guidance Clinic for scholastic backwardness, 12 of them who were diagnosed as slow learners based on current level of academic functioning and IQ, and 6 children having mild mental retardation were given individualized education for a period of two months. Independent assessors evaluated the academic functioning at the beginning of the training and at the end. Results : The results showed that the children had significant improvement in their academic functioning and self esteem after the training. Conclusion : The present experiment can be a model to set up a resource room in normal schools to provide individualized education to children who are slow learners.
