Special Needs Resources for Vocational Education. Second Edition.
Gordon, Ruth, Comp.
Intended as a reference for vocational education personnel who serve special needs populations, this catalog identifies resource organizations that can provide information or technical assistance and recently developed materials for special needs groups and program areas. Section I includes organizations, arranged alphabetically and preceded by a title listing. They represent such diverse types as advocacy groups, clearinghouses, libraries, professional associations, research and development centers, and rehabilitation research and training centers. The information provided for each organization is as follows: organization name, director, contact person, address and telephone number, type of organization, subject terms (major descriptors) that indicate the focus of the organization, subject terms (minor descriptors) that generally denote the types of services offered, and a brief annotation. A subject index provides access to organizations. Section II provides examples of recently developed materials announced in the online databases Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) and Vocational Education Curriculum Materials (VECM). These materials illustrate the types of resources available. An information sheet describes each database and gives instruction for accessing the databases to obtain curriculum materials for special needs students. A subject index to the ERIC and VECM materials is included. Appendixes include explanations of ERIC and VECM citations and addresses of Curriculum Coordination Centers. (YLB)
