Online communities of supportForums have been set up to support practitioners who work with learners with special educational needs or individual learning needs. These forums, or online communities, enable practitioners from a wide range of educational settings to share their expertise with each other. They operate through email lists and focus on a specific area of need or a particular practitioner group. There is no cost to join a forum - it is free. Forum helpIf you need help in joining a forum, have any queries about its operation or would like to discuss the creation of a new forum, please contact Terry Waller (terry.waller@becta.org.uk) at Becta. |
