Summary
This book offers concrete, step-by-step procedures for assessing and interpreting cognitive and academic performance for the purpose of intervention planning.

Leading experts use real case studies to explain how to select and tailor interventions for students with learning difficulties in reading, mathematics, written expression, and in oral and written language. It is conveniently formatted for rapid reference, with intervention planning guidelines and worksheets on its accompanying CD-ROM.
