Offers an overview of a wide range of disabilities that have an impact on students' learning and development. This book contains topics including: intellectual disability, autism, Asperger syndrome, other pervasive developmental disorders, language disorders, physical and health impairments, and vision and hearing impairments.

This book explains the different theories of teaching and learning, together with their underlying principles and methods. It defines the role of a teacher in the learning process and looks at the latest research on what contributes to effective practice.

Draws on international research about learning difficulties to present a picture of the issues involved. This title focuses on early identification, so that intervention can prevent or minimise the negative outcomes of persistent failure and explains how teachers can address problems effectively.
