生涯規劃不單只是職業上的規劃,而是要為個人面對人生種種不同情境,作出全面的分析和規劃。有特殊教育需要的學生因著智能、肌能及職能發展上的限制,職業發展只屬於他們生涯規劃的一部份;更重要的是讓他們的生命有意義、有質素,並有尊嚴地渡過。本文嘗試討論香港及其他地方有關特教生生涯規劃的原則與理念,為建立他們整全人格的生涯規劃定位。文中介紹美國行之有效的生活為本教育轉銜課程,並以香港不同課程體系為比較實例,展示如何將生涯規劃應要掌握的內容在課程中實踐。Life planning is not just career planning but also helping individuals to face with all kinds of situations in life and make comprehensive analysis and planning. Students with special educational needs, because of their intellectual, physical and work limitations, career development can only account for a part in their life planning. The most important thing is to create a meaningful life with both quality and dignity. This paper attempts to discuss the principles and concepts in life planning of students with special needs in Hong Kong and other countries for establishing holistic personal development. In the paper, effective implementation of the Life Centered Education (LCE) Transition Curriculum in United States would also introduced. Some Hong Kong curriculum models were discussed for showing how local institutions practice life planning throughout the local curriculum context.

本文旨在討論特殊教育需要統籌主任在教師專業發展上可以發揮的角色。根據教育局的定義,統籌主任的職責在於協助學校管理層以全校參與模式推動融合教育,當中包括了系統層面的工作,如教師培訓等。教師認為當局提供的特教培訓不足,而即使進修了相關課程的老師,在學校的也未必能實踐新學到的知識。作者認為統籌主任有需要學習運用知識管理的工具,鼓勵教師在工作崗位上發掘新知識,並促動教師之間知識的流動,以彌補教師團隊在融合教育上所欠缺的知識。The article discusses a possible role the special educational needs coordinator can assume in the professional development of teachers. The Education Bureau defines the duties of the coordinator as assisting the school management in promoting the Whole School Approach to Integrated Education, including work at a system level such as teacher training. Teachers are of the view that the Bureau does not provide enough training in special educational needs. Even when teachers have completed relevant training, they may not be able to put what they have learned into practice. The author suggests that the coordinator should learn to use the tools in knowledge management to encourage other teachers to generate new knowledge and facilitate the flow of knowledge among them, thereby filling the gap of knowledge of the teachers in integrated knowledge.

由於每位學生都有其個別需要,故此如何照顧個別差異是學校以至每位老師的一個重要課題。根據香港教育局的融合教育運作指南,建議學校採用三層支援模式,以便因應學生不同的需要而提供適切的支援。而大多數學校均於每年的十二月起進行「及早識別和輔導有學習困難的小一學生計劃」(第一層:及早識別),並會設置輔導課,作為第二層支援的策略。作為學校負責統籌特殊教育需要的行政人員(下稱統籌主任),筆者希望透過檢視香港及不同地區對數學輔導教學的原則及策略,反思如何改善學校的小一數學輔導教學。Since each student has his or her own individual needs, how to cater for individual differences is an important issue for each teacher in schools. According to the Integrated Education Operation Guide of Hong Kong Education Bureau, it is recommended that schools should adopt a 3-tier intervention model to provide appropriate support to cater for students with different educational needs. Most schools carry out the "Early Identification and Intervention Programme for Primary One Students with Learning Difficulties" (First Tier: Early Identification) in December. Remedial classes, small group teaching and pull-out programmes will be involved as a Second Tier support strategy as well. As a school administrator (hereinafter referred to as SENCo) who coordinates the issues of special educational needs, I hope to improve the teaching of Primary One Mathematics in schools by examining the current principles and strategies of remedial teaching in Hong Kong and different regions.
