What the literature leaves open

  • the national resulted project “What Worlcs - Technology in Special in Education”. This Project aims to produce an information statement on current and future directions in this field as well as the collection and dissemination of information and resources. Each State will receive several copies of a resource pack containing software, literatureand video tapes collected as a result of Project Officer. Peter Pryce-Davies’ research and visits to Australian capital cities. President, John Charlton, is a member of the Software Coordinators Advisory Group as part of the newly established National Software Coordination Unit. Once operational, this group will provide an information sharing system included in which will bc software information relevant to teachers of children with special needs. It is anticipated that information will be accessed electronically. The Executive of SECIG is currently re- examining the structure and organisation of the group, particularly with regard to the difficulties of maintaining regular meetings. One possibility is the usc of teleconferences with a participant from each state who would present state level issues for consideration. In this way issues requiring o r benefiting from a national response could be identified and acted upon by AASE- SECIG.
