Perspectives
Dear Members,
As you will be aware, we have not been able to get Special Education Perspectives 18(2) to you by the end of 2009. We apologise for this - there were a combination of circumstances beyond our control. You will now be receiving 18(2) in the same mailout as 19(1), the first edition for 2010 which will be dispatched mid year. We hope you find the papers in those two journals interesting and relevant to your professional practice. AASE, through journals such as Special Education Perspectives, is committed to sharing information about evidence-based practice in special education and your contributions are warmly welcomed.
Yours sincerely,
David Paterson Editor, Special Education Perspectives
