Contributions are invited from interested persons, covering any relevant aspects of research, theory, and practice in the general field of education, psychology, guidance and counselling, information communication technology or diversity in learning. Case studies and literature reviews are also welcome. All articles submitted will be independently and anonymously reviewed by two referees.

Anyone wishing to assist as a ‘Guest Editor’ for a special issue should contact the Editor, Dr. Mantak Yuen (email: mtyuen@hku.hk).   

 

This special section will review international literature and current trends in interlocking research and practice for supporting students with special needs. It will offer an overview of current theories, research and practices that address the challenge of interlocking research and practice for supporting students with special needs in Hong Kong, mainland China and Asian countries.  The information will be of value in stimulating reflection and research among educators, guidance professionals and researchers.
