articles written in Chinese related to mental retardation in

["McMillen, Gary L" <persglm@LSUMC.EDU>]

Dear Group:
I apologize for bending the rules.  I am not a librarian.  I actually =
work in Human Resources but, as you will see, I need broad-based =
assistance.

Background---I currently mentor three international students from Taiwan =
in conversational English.  They are in the United States for one year, =
working on a master's thesis at a local university.  They are bright and =
dedicated students.  In Taiwan they teach at the high school level.  =
Their English is something described as "Level 2."  To research and to =
write their paper requires a painstaking process of translating from =
English into Chinese, then ultimately back into English in the form of =
their own thought and hypothesis.=20

Request for advice or assistance---They need articles from research or =
medical journals on the topic of exercise as it relates to mental =
retardation in children.  They need these articles to be written in =
Chinese so that they can proceed more efficiently.  The library at their =
university and the library where I work have been helpful in searching =
and finding the necessary journal articles written in English but have =
hit a hard and high wall when it comes to finding similar articles in =
Chinese.

Once again, I sincerely apologize for this "one time" intrusion into =
your forum.  I will unsubscribe in a few days. =20
Any time, effort or consideration you can offer will be greatly =
appreciated.
