Conductive Education: benefits and challenges

It is great to read on Andrew Sutton's blog today that the above article on Conductive Education has been published in an American special education journal.

http://www.conductive-world.info/2009/05/rejoice-rejoice.html

It is only available to read if you have a subscription to the journal, Teaching Exceptional Children or are a member of the Council for Exceptional Children, but I have managed to read the reference list and am pleased to say that all those mentioned are available in the National Library of Conductive Education.

Getting a copy to add to the library stock may take a little while as copyright and permissions/purchase will be necessary, but hopefully this article will become a new addition as soon as possible and be accessible to all users of the library.

I suggest you contact Melanie Brown mel@conductive-education.org.uk if you wish to be informed of its availability or wish to access any of the references.

The full reference is:

Ratcliffe, K. and Sanekane, C. (2009) Conductive Education: benefits and challenges.
Teaching Exceptional Children,May/June, pp. 66-72.

Well done Gill.

I would like to congratulate you on your amazing memory. It appears to be even better than I imagined it was when I mentioned in my last library posting what a wealth of information you have stored in your head.

That you had already collected everything that is on the reference list of the article mentioned in Andrew’s blog is a feat in itself, but that you know they are all there in the library is even more praiseworthy.

How is it that you manage to find so many articles and things connected with CE even the most obscure ones?
