Current Perspectives on Learning Disabilities, Volume 16 (Advances in Special Education)

Description:

"This book addresses prominent trends in learning disabilities in a systematic and comprehensive manner. The book's major premise focuses on the early identification and intervention of learning disabilities which can positively impact a child's academic performance by making achievement possible. Critical information is discussed to prevent undetected learning disability which may lead even an older student to straggle with poor grades, low self-esteem, loss of interest in higher education, and reduced employment." "The book is valuable to general and special education teachers, school psychologists, teacher educators, practicing mental health clinicians, and school and career counselors. A secondary audience is graduate students in special education and counseling graduate programs who need a comprehensive resource book on current trends and best practices."--BOOK JACKET.
