Lock, Robin H.
Rural Special Education Quarterly, v20 n4 p3-10 Fall 2001
Texas Tech University offers online courses in special education for graduate credit or inservice education. This approach addresses the problems of time, distance, resources, and expertise experienced by rural educators. Unenrolled practitioners not interested in returning to school can access chat rooms and threaded discussions to get support for including students with disabilities in their classrooms. (TD)
