The Web Services is a new technology, with the characteristics of cross-platform and language and application independence. The core techniques of Web Services for achieving the information exchange and system integration are XML, SOAP, WSDL UDDI, and etc. Because the information sharing occurs between different web domains, the legality and safety issues related to data access are critical. The teacher should formulate the teaching materials and decide the teaching objectives based on the different intellectual and physical conditions of the physically and mentally disabled students. However, there exist different information systems among the special education schools and it’s usually difficult to use these systems to establish the Individualized Education Plan (IEP). It is even more difficult to establish the starting point of the IEP of a student when he or she transfers from one school to another one. Besides, the Right of Privacy of the physically and mentally disabled students is very important. It has been clearly specified in Children's Welfare Law that “The secrets or private affairs of someone that are known by someone else as a consequence of working with him should not be revealed to other people except for certain justifiable reasons.” Furthermore, the information platforms are different among the special education schools. The secure Web Services technology will be a viable solution to the problems aforementioned. This research presents an information exchange mechanism appropriate for the special education based on the secure Web Services. XML is used to establish the IEPs while Role Based Access Control is used to manage the data access. The research results can help solve the information exchange problems between the special education schools using different systems and facilitate more efficient utilizations of safer IEP information systems in the future. Key Words : Web Services, Individualized Education Plan (IEP), Right of Privacy, access control.
