Differentiating Learning Differences from Disabilities

By integrating factors of cultural diversity, language differences, and disabilities, this timely new book gives educators a complete picture of the needs of their diverse students at all grade and ability levels. Unlike other manuals that look at these factors individually, this book empowers readers to more clearly discern learning differences from learning disabilities and provide focused intervention and instruction. Author John Hoover addresses diverse cultural norms and expected behavior associated with English as a second language alongside learning behavior characteristics, explaining the nuanced range of diagnosis needed to correctly assess a student’s needs. Every chapter features a complete discussion of the contents’ significance in today’s classroom as well as numerous opportunities for reflection and further study. With many evidence-based interventions and more than 30 reproducible guides for use within multi-tiered instruction and response to intervention models, this book takes theory into practice for mainstream or special educators.
