Assessment of auditory discrimination ability in economically disadvantaged and nondisadvantaged preschool children using the Wepman Test of Auditory Discrimination was made. The results indicated a significant deficiency in auditory discrimination in the economically disadvantaged group, suggesting the need for further research, as well as a modified curriculum in the education of this group.

The paper asks whether, given the need to develop models suitable for rural areas and for theory on rural health to extend, international comparative research is an imperative or an indulgence.

In former times visually Impaired students were often placed In special schools. This policy Is beginning to change and young people with varying degrees of sight deficiency are now being Integrated Into standard classroom settings. Such a strategy may pose substantial problems for the specialist music teacher who may have had little training In this or any other field of special education. The purpose of this Paper is to consider the kinds of Information a music educator may require to cope with the needs of a visually Impaired student in a standard classroom setting.
