The ISSEN e-mail group was established as fast and
effective way to make enquiries, and to stimulate discussions.
There are numerous e-mail groups in existence for special
educational needs but this is unique as it is specific
to science. It has been effective in that teachers have
been able to share with and learn from others in mainstream
and special school settings.
Some issues have struck a chord within the e-mail group.
One example was a lively discussion considering alternatives
to GCSEs and other accredited schemes. Teachers were
able to share their own school's approach with the group.
Another example allowed teachers to considered the use
of symbol-supported text, with individuals sharing their
expertise. Science teaching enquiries have been raised;
in a recent discussion teachers 'compared notes' on
the extraction of DNA.
Others are very welcome to join this e-mail group.
