Handbook of Learning Disabilities

This definitive handbook is now in an extensively revised third edition, including many all-new chapters and new topics. Foremost experts review the breadth of current knowledge about learning disabilities (LD), from core psychological and neurobiological processes to evidence-based instruction. Chapters describe best practices in identifying and supporting students with difficulties in reading, writing, math, and other content areas. Service delivery models that support differentiated instruction and data-based decision making are examined, and ways to meet the needs of specific populations, including English learners with LD, are explored. Prior edition editors: H. Lee Swanson, Karen R. Harris, and Steve Graham.

Chapters on language development and reading disabilities, LD in English learners, social-emotional learning, comorbidity with LD, dyslexia legislation, cultural and equity issues, the use of technology to support differentiated instruction, state-of-the-art research methods, teacher preparation, integrated multi-tiered systems of support, and other timely topics.
