Benefits of Providing Quality Support for New Teachers What Do New Teachers Need? Although there have been few large-scale studies of new teacher induction programs, existing data confirm that schools that provide high levels of support for beginners do retain more teachers (Goodwin, 1999). The Santa Cruz New Teacher Project (SCNTP), for example, which has been in existence since 1993, reports that 90 percent of participating teachers have remained in the profession (Moir, n.d.). Weiss and Weiss (1999) cite a 93 percent retention rate in urban districts that provide formal induction programs for beginners. Benefits for students and schools: Stronger connections among the teaching staff, leading to a more positive and cohesive learning environment for students. Less time and money spent on recruiting and hiring replacements (Halford, 1999). Benefits for teachers: Stronger classroom management skills (Educational Resources Information Center, 1986). Ability to deal with behavior and discipline problems more effectively. Increased job satisfaction for both new and veteran teachers (Moir, n.d.).

Most students with ADD are served in the general education classroom. Some students may receive services under the rules and regulations of either Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The IDEA defines as eligible only students who have certain specified types of disabilities and who, because of one of those conditions, need special education and specially designed instruction. Section 504, protects all qualified students with disabilities, defined as those having any physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one ore more major life activities including learning. Section 504 covers all students who meet this definition, even if they do not need to be in a special education program. It is important for classroom teachers and other professionals who work with these students to understand the classroom modifications and accommodations that can assist these students.

Project Summary This project demonstrates how technology can assist students with disabilities to compensate for academic deficits. Through demonstration and technical assistance, the project will influence the informal policies of rural schools in Montana where students with disabilities are denied the use word processing, screen reading, and other forms of technology because school officials believe these devices are "crutches," allowing students with disabilities to have an unfair advantage over nondisabled students. Project implementation involves on-site demonstrations of compensatory tools and trial use of laptops with appropriate software so that staff and students can see how technology is helpful under real classroom conditions.

Strain Richard van den Pol McWilliam's (in this issue) treatment of controversial practices offers a straightforward description along with insightful commentary regarding common elements, reasons for adoption, and future directions for the field. We cannot improve on McWilliam's chosen analysis nor question his recommendations. Instead, we propose to offer a different set of views of controversial practices. There is some personal history behind these views, which serves as preface. A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE ON CONTROVERSIAL PRACTICES It is appropriate to recognize the guidance we received over many years from a group of nationally prominent experts, including Don Baer, Ray Beck, Phil Bornstein, Glendon Casto, Bob Crow, Bud Fredericks, Gray Garwood, Jim Hamilton, Patti Hutinger, Sally Rule, Barbara Smith, Bill Swan, Lisbeth Vincent, and Mark Wolery. Their input guided the efforts of Shelley Neilsen, Jan Spiegle, Stacia (Butterfield) Jepson, and countless others to attempt to synthesize a model that would be conducive to allowing rural preschoolers to "reach their full potential." Of course, because the filter through which our history of controversies is scrutinized is ours alone, no endorsement of these observations should be inferred on the part of those whose contributions nonetheless are gratefully acknowledged.

Main July 01, 1991 Telecommunications, Education and the Handicapped (7/91) Telecommunications, Education and the Handicapped The North American Perspective by Norman Coombs College of Liberal Arts Rochester Institute of Technology One Lomb Memorial Dr. Rochester, NY 14623 Email NRCGSH@RITVAX.ISC.RIT.EDU This article is adapted from a paper delivered at the Second International Conference on Computers for Handicapped Persons held in Zurich, Switzerland, Dec. 1990. Computer telecommunication has been used at the Rochester Institute of Technology, (RIT), to reduce barriers to learning for the physically handicapped. I am a totally blind professor of history, and I have been using electronic mail and computer conferencing to increase my contact with students. Originally, I required students to submit their written work using electronic mail rather than using paper copy. This permitted me to do away with most of my human readers. I use a desktop computer and a speech synthesizer and connect with the school's mainframe with a phone and modem. Not only did this permit me to do my work without assistance, but I could work at times of my own choice. Submitting work through electronic mail held some advantages for the students as well. I now make it a habit to grade and return the work within 24 to 48 hours. Quick feedback through electronic mail helps students evaluate their progress better.
