Supplemental/Replacement: An Alternative Approach to Excess Costs.
Hartman, William T.
Exceptional Children, v56 n5 p450-59 Feb 1990
This article proposes a new operational definition of excess cost in determining state and federal funding for special education. The new approach is based on programs and services rather than accounting calculations of the difference between special education cost per student and regular education cost per student. (Author/DB)
