Bibliography

Many items in this bibliography are indexed in ERIC, the nationwide information network sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education that is designed to provide ready access to education literature. Each document in the ERIC database has an “ED” (ERIC Document) designation and a unique six-digit document-specific number. Each journal article in the database has an “EJ” (ERIC Journal) designation and a six-digit number that identifies that specific article.
Most of the documents with an “ED” prefix can be ordered from the ERIC Document Reproduction Service (EDRS) in electronic (Adobe PDF), paper, or microfiche format. (Items with an “EJ” designation cannot be ordered through EDRS; patrons must access the journal in which the article originally appeared.) Orders can be placed over the EDRS website or via phone, fax, or mail. Specify the ED number, type of reproduction desired, and number of copies. To contact EDRS by phone, call 1-800-443-3742. To place an order from the EDRS website, go to http://www.edrs.com
