    Purpose of Course *
    The function of Educ. 422 is to provide a wide-base
    introduction to current research, theory, and practice in
    the diagnosis and remediation of Learning Disabilities.
    The course is not a clinical experience. Rather, it is
    designed to enhance a regular classroom teacher's under-
    standing of
    learning disabilities, and to provide that
    teacher with knowledge to assist in the identification
    and
    non-clinical
    treatment of learning disabilities.

    The value of Educ, 422 to you, is largely dependent
    upon your enthusiasm and the amount of energy and
    study you contribute.
    ?
    The conditions of instruction
    can be arranged, controlled, and managed, - and yet,
    it is true that the final responsibility for learning
    rests with the learner.
    Good luck,
