More than 600 presenters, panelists, co-authors, and chairpersons have come together from 56 countries to contribute to these sessions. A Call for Prcsentations was distributed worldwide early in 1989, resulting in the submission of more than 700 abstracts for pmgram consideration. The abstracts that appear in Proceedings I were selected by the National Program Committee for presentation. Unfortunately, many abstracts of high merit could not be accepted because of space limitations on the program. Topics The progiam for the 1990 ICED is organized around 12 major topics.These topics were selected in 1988 by the program co-chairpersons and the International Program Committee. Subtopics wereadded to clarify individual topks and to encourage presentations in particular areas of interest. The 12 major topics are: Development of language skills Communication Instruction Cognition and learning Educational policies and services Organization and administration of schools and programs Students with special needs Psychosocial development and physical/mental health Education and work College and continuing education Audiological and medical aspects of deafness Deaf adults in society The absoacts in Proceedings I are organized by topic (see Table of Contents). There are obvious overlaps across topics, and the placement of presentations and their abstracts under one topic rather than another was sometimes arbitrary. Considerable thought was given to the question of whether to focus attention on specific needsand issues concerning the deaf children and adults of developing countries by adding jne or morespecial topics. The program planners dejded instead to integrate the presentationsof parbcular concern to participants from developing countries into the existing topics in order to broaden discussion. , Preface Abstracts The abstracts withIn each topic are organized alphabetically by last name of the presenter or first author. For nels and symposia, abstracts are listed by last name of the moderator. The names of co-authors, co- presenters, and panelists are indicated also, and their countries are identified. The date and time of each presentation are noted, together with its location. Using the date, time, and room number, the reader can identify the title of the session in which the presentation is given by consulting the Program Schedule that follows this preface.If the reader has the ICED Program Booklet, he or she can also identify the chairperson and the other presentations in the particular session. Presenters were asked to submit abstzacts in English, which is a second or unknown language for many. Some presenters asked a second person to tzanslate the titles and content of their abstracts into English before these abstracts were submitted. Most abstracts received minor editing for formai consistency, and some were edited extensively to improve their readability in English or to reduce their length.In the editing, an effort has been made to keep the essential information in each abstract intact.If the editors were not always successful, they apologize. Appendices Appendix A is the "Index of authors." Alphabetically arranged, this list contains the names of authors, co- authors, and panelists who are associated with the abstracts. The page numbers of their abstracts are indicated for easy reference. Appendix B is titled "Presenters and Chairpersons." Organized alphabetically, this list includes persons' names, occupations, organizational/institutional affiliations, and their cities and countries of residence. iv Preface Acknowledgment We thank the staff members in the Division of Management Services for production support, the Department of Instructional Design & Evaluation for design, and the Division of Public Affairs for writing and management support of these Proceedings.
