-
The dedication speech of the John F. Kennedy by the United States Commissioner of Education gives two principles which guide federal efforts in providing special help for educational problems common to all regions and in setting priorities for federal investment. Five priorities for federal financial support of programs for the handicapped are discussed; research in and refinement of techniques for identification and new knowledge of handicapped children (Research and Development Centers); rapid dissemination of educational information (Instructional Materials Centers); the need fo r trained teachers of the handicapped (traineeships and fellowships); development of programs for mentally and physically handicapped culturally deprived children to reduce imbalance in quality education present in this country; and the need for a proper physical environment for special education classes and schools (a consideration of school design, classroom placement, flexibility of spatial arrangements, and special instructional materials and equipment). Greater state contribution to programs for the handicapped and the cooperation of public and private agencies are recommended. The goal of educational opportunity in this country is described as including the handicapped as well as minorities and the majority. (SN)
