ONLINE SERVICES This article was updated November 5, 2001 Inclusion remains a controversial concept in education because it relates to educational and social values, as well as to our sense of individual worth. Any discussion about inclusion should address several important questions: There are advocates on both sides of the issue. James Kauffman of the University of Virginia views inclusion as a policy driven by an unrealistic expectation that money will be saved. Furthermore, he argues that trying to force all students into the inclusion mold is just as coercive and discriminatory as trying to force all students into the mold of a special education class or residential institution. At the other end of the spectrum are those who believe that all students belong in the regular education classroom, and that "good" teachers are those who can meet the needs of all the students, regardless of what those needs may be.

Extractions: Vermont educators continue to examine ways to better prepare today's students to be successful in a rapidly changing society. Preparing students to be successful adults for a future that is unpredictable and ever changing is a continual challenge. What are the constants in a world where change is a constant? The Vermont State Technology Council (VSTC) believes the development of information technology skills and knowledge is essential in order for all students to attain the Vermont Education Goals. Like higher order thinking skills, information technology skills can no longer be considered a non-essential part of each Vermont student's education. The use of information technology tools (word processing, interactive television, telecommunication, hypermedia,etc.) should not be viewed as ends in and of themselves. Rather, it should be seen as a means of more efficiently and effectively achieving what Vermonters outline in the ambitious Vermont Education Goals. The VSTC believes we cannot leave the development of information skills and knowledge to chance. We believe that the state must provide direction to local school districts in the area of information technologies as they have in all curricular areas. With this in mind, VSTC, with the assistance of the State Department of Education, invited thirty educators** from throughout Vermont to a symposium at Sugarbush Inn, in Warren,Vt. in September to:
