Book Synopsis Reading Diagnosis and Prescription by : Gabriel Mario Della-Piana
Download or read book Reading Diagnosis and Prescription written by Gabriel Mario Della-Piana and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to function as an introduction to the process of individual diagnosis of reading difficulties and the prescription of treatments. Written for the classroom teacher and the prospective reading specialist, the text would supplement the supervised experience in diagnosis usually given in the college course. The text addresses a reader acquainted with the basic theories concerning causes of reading difficulties, and concentrates on assisting in identifying the student's reading weakness using an individual diagnostic reading battery. It is not a complete handbook, for it omits reference to medical or psychological causes, and to various treatment approaches, materials, or theories. The book will be of value in graduate courses, with its simplicity and non-critical style. In the hands of an experienced college instructor who can supplement it where necessary, this textbook will be a very useful instructional tool.

Book Synopsis Textbook of Developmental Pediatrics by : Marvin I. Gottlieb
Download or read book Textbook of Developmental Pediatrics written by Marvin I. Gottlieb and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child/adolescent development and behavior have been a traditional "concern" of prima ry health care providers. However, it was not until the mid-1960s that attempts were made to consolidate developmental-behavioral issues into an identifiably distinct fund of medi cal knowledge. During the ensuing two decades, developmental-behavioral pediatrics was recognized as a clinical and research subspecialty, within the framework of compre hensive health care for children. The influence of public advocacy groups, topic-dedicated journals, national professional specialty societies, subject-related continuing education programs, and federal legislation (PL94-142) has served to crystallize developmen tal-behavioral pediatrics as a specialized field of study. As a consequence, during the past ten years significant modifications have restructured medical student and pediatric resi dent education, providing an emphasis on developmental-behavioral issues. The focus on neurodevelopmental, educational, and psychosocial issues reflects changing priorities in traditional health care for children. The postgraduate training of pediatric fellows, in two and three-year training programs, was initiated to accommodate professional manpower needs in both academic and practice settings. Many of the problems in childhood development and behavior frequently span the traditional areas of child neurology, child psychiatry, and general pediatrics. As a result there has been some confusion in demarcating professional responsibilities in diagnosis and management, as well as poorly defined terminology and classification schemas. With the birth of developmental pediatrics as a pediatric specialty, a more cohesive fund of knowledge has been accumulated and more meaningful strategies have been designed for prevention, diagnosis, and management.

Book Synopsis The Incomplete Child by : Scot Danforth
Download or read book The Incomplete Child written by Scot Danforth and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the passage of Public Law 94-142 in 1975, the learning disability construct gained national legitimacy. Feeding that political achievement, behind the very idea of a learning disability, was the development of a science that blended neurology, psychology, and education. This book tracks the historical creation of the science of learning disabilities, beginning with the clinical research with brain-injured World War I soldiers conducted by German physician Kurt Goldstein. It traces the growth of the two primary research traditions, the psycholinguistic theory of Samuel Kirk and the movement education of Newell Kephart, exploring how specific scientific orientations, theories, and practices led to the birth of the learning disability in the United States.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading this volume, chapter by chapter, I had a feeling of exuberance and exhiliration. lt is both a privilege and achaIlengc 10 write a foreword for this second edition of Learning Disahilities and Brain Function. The scope and quality of the scientific and clinical insights expressed are unusual. It is difficult to do justice 10 the book within the constraints of a foreword. I can only reftect its significance to instructors, scientists. and clinicians in education, psychology, psychiatry. pediatrics. speech pa thology and neurology. In the early chapters are discussions of brain function as it relates to learning and learning disabilities, with many implications for better undcr standing of the neurology of behavior. These chapters are followcd by an articulate consideration of neuropsychological disorders, definition. iden tification and diagnosis of the cognitive dysfunctions that underlie learn ing disabilities. There is an analysis of the role of perception, as weIl as of the significance of impared sensory and motor-cognitive processes. The concluding chapters comprise a clear, erudite, yet practical dis course on the spectrum of language disorders, including the spoken, read, and writ ten forms. Dr. Gaddes provides a constructive review of what it means when children have aphasia, of how this language disorder has implica tions for other types of learning. He elucidates and evaluates the status of our knowledge relative to childhood dyslexia and dysgraphia. This analy sis holds promise for clarification of the issues that have been disconcert ing, especially to educators and psychologists.
Book Synopsis Identification of Learning Disabilities by : Renee Bradley
Download or read book Identification of Learning Disabilities written by Renee Bradley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2002-12-18 with total page 879 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identification of Learning Disabilities: Research to Practice is the remarkable product of a learning disabilities summit conference convened by the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) in August 2001 and the activities following that summit. Both the conference and this book were seen as important preludes to congressional reauthorization of the historic Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) scheduled for 2002 and subsequent decision making surrounding implementation. The OSEP conference brought together people with different perspectives on LD (parents, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers) and resulted in this book, which examines the research on nine key issues concerning the identification of children with learning disabilities. Coverage includes alternative responses to treatment, classification approaches, processing deficit models, and approaches to decision making. Chapter Structure-- Each of the first nine chapters is organized around a lengthy, issue-oriented paper, which presents the most current research on that topic. These primary papers are then followed by four respondent papers that reflect a variety of viewpoints on the topic. Summarizing Chapter -- A small group of researchers (listed in the final chapter) dedicated an enormous amount of time to summarizing the research and developing key consensus statements regarding the identification of children with learning disabilities. Their work is sure to have a tremendous impact on future discussions in this area. Expertise-- The following well-known scholars have helped summarize the vast amount of research presented in this book as well as the consensus statements derived therefrom: Lynne Cook, Don Deshler, Doug Fuchs, Jack M. Fletcher, Frank Gresham, Dan Hallahan, Joseph Jenkins, Kenneth Kavale, Barbara Keogh, Margo Mastopieri, Cecil Mercer, Dan Reschley, Rune Simeonsson, Joe Torgesen, Sharon Vaughn, and Barbara Wise.

Contributors-psychologists, linguists, instructional designers, reading and special education experts were asked to address three questions: (1) What is the nature of skilled reading? (2) How is reading skill acquired? (3) What do the nature of skilled reading and the process of acquiring reading skill jointly suggest for reading instruction? This is Volume I of a collection of essays looking at topics such as reading stages, coding and comprehension skills, word recognition, language skills, instruction and teaching theories and an analysis of reading two beginning reading programs.

Book Synopsis Learning Disorders by : Peter Westwood
Download or read book Learning Disorders written by Peter Westwood and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are learning disorders? How can schools endeavour to address these disorders in today’s inclusive classrooms? This book answers these important questions in practical terms and discusses in detail the instructional needs of students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia and other significant disorders that affect learning. Peter Westwood draws on international research literature to provide supporting evidence of best practices. The book is unique in linking the teaching methods recommended for overcoming learning problems directly to each of the three tiers of support in the Response-to-Intervention Model. It presents examples of effective whole-class teaching, intensive small group instruction and individual tutoring, as well as addressing key topics such as: educational progress of students with learning disorders; principles for teaching dyslexic students; difficulties with writing and spelling; developing students’ numeracy skills; specific intervention strategies; nonverbal learning disabilities. Learning Disorders will be of interest to practising teachers, trainee teachers, teaching assistants, educational psychologists, school counsellors and parents. It will also provide valuable insights for any school planning to upgrade its support system for students with special educational needs.
