Abstract | The digest examines the supply and the quality of special education personnel and notes problems in the area of personnel preparation. Statistics are cited to show that the current supply of qualified personnel does not meet demand, particularly in such important areas as special education. Similarly, efforts in recent years to strengthen the quality of teacher preparation programs in colleges and universitites are noted. The "quandry" facing special education because of the limited numbers of available persons and the large numbers of uncertified and untrained personnel in some areas is discussed. Further difficulties are traced to low salary levels and diminishing popular respect for the teaching profession. The digest concludes with a statement emphasizing the connections of quality and quantity in personnel matters to the nation's problems in education. (CL) |
