Learning Disabilities and Related Disorders: Characteristics and Teaching Strategies

by Janet W. Lerner, Frank Kline

Designed to help pre-service teachers and practicing professionals evaluate and aid students with disabilities, this comprehensive text is guided by three main principles: to aid in the assessment and evaluation of students with learning disabilities, to demonstrate Learning Disabled (LD) theory and its practical applications through the use of case studies, and to provide the most up-to-date information on recent developments and topics of debate in the field. The Tenth Edition continues to stress familiarity with state and national standards, specifically those from the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC).

I read this textbook in preparation for the ESE exam to renew my teaching certification. As textbooks go, it was an easy read. I liked the fact that the pages weren't too cluttered up with information the way some textbooks are. Some of the info in different chapters seemed a bit repetitive, but overall the book was informative. I'm hopeful the information provided will help me pass the test! ;)

Had a lot of great points and was geared for classroom teachers. I did feel that many suggestions were aimed at lower grades than I teach. There are many links to furhter information.
