LEARNING DISABILITIES
This course provides a framework for understanding learning disabilities. It
focuses on conceptual, historical and research issues in the learning disabilities
field. It is the prerequisite or corequisite to Education 424 (Learning Disabilities
Practicum).
Each chapter of the assigned text has its own accompanying sets of review
and thinking questions. Students should carefully work through these questions.
They are for your own benefit and are not to be handed in for marking. There are
three Think Papers that are to be submitted for marking and are worth 30% of
your course mark.
