Researching Special Needs.

Wilson, John

British Journal of Special Education, v29 n3 p141-43 Sep 2002

This article proposes that research into special educational needs has to explore the meaning of the phrase "special needs" and the values that underpin this phrase. It concludes this process will entail the development of new forms of inquiry, new ways of working, and new ways of thinking about research. (Contains 2 references.) (Author/CR)
