Roger Kosson (kossonr@denison.edu), Social Sciences Librarian, x6389This class page is designed to provide access to resources that will hopefully be useful to students in this particular class. For now, it focuses on resources related to one of the first assignments, concerning children with exceptionalities. Throughout the semester, it can be updated to include resources relevant to other class assignments or topics of discussion. If, in the course of your research, you come across any resources that you think would be useful to your colleagues, please let Roger Kosson know and he will add it to this class page.
