    Extractions: IELDC Reviews Table of Contents Sample Chapter Updates A. What Is Special Education? "Special education" is the broad term used to describe the educational system available for children with disabilities. A learning disability is a specific disability category covered by special education law and addressed by special education programs. As discussed in greater detail later in this book, learning disabilities can range from minor differences in learning style to serious difficulties processing information. A lot of people, many of them highly intelligent, have learning disabilities. There is no relationship between native intelligence and the existence of a learning disability indeed, the law defines a learning disability as a substantial gap between a child's intelligence and her actual achievements. But before you can get into the specifics of how to address your child's needs, you will have to understand how the special education system works.

Special Education and Learning Disabilities A child with a learning disability has different educational needs than a child with mobility problems or emotional difficulties. And different learning disabilities require different educational strategies a child who has reading difficulties, for example, will need different types of assistance from a child who has trouble with auditory processing. Regardless of whether we like these terms, they are part of the learning disability world and you'll need to master them to become the best possible advocate for your child. As you go through this book, you will learn about broad special education rules and processes as well as specific items that relate to learning disabilities. You'll need both types of information to successfully navigate the IEP process. Don't worry about memorizing any of these terms; you'll become familiar and even comfortable with them as you move forward.

CONTACT by Susan Litt Have you ever found yourself debating whether one of your ESL/Bilingual students has a learning disability that is hindering his/her progress in school? Determining whether a child has normal language acquisition issues or a learning disability can be a difficult process. Many questions must be answered before appropriate decisions can be made. How does one make the decision to place an ESL/Bilingual child in a special education program? There are many questions that must be answered before a Child Study Team (CST)decides to recommend referral. We must remember that mainstream teachers view our students from a different perspective and often see their language development issues as a learning disability. When a child is being recommended for a Child Study Team evaluation, we can not allow the team members to automatically throw the referral back to the ESL/Bilingual Department saying that the problem is a second language problem; nor should we rush headlong into the evaluation/classification process. Below are some things that you as ESL/Bilingual educators can do to prevent both of these harmful actions. First, you must go through the prereferral process. The prereferral process is a screening and intervention process that involves identifying problems that a student is having and ways to help deal with these problems. The purpose is to avoid unnecessary referral to the CST. During the prereferral process there are a few steps to be followed to assure success.

However, scientific investigators agree about the need for instruction to address certain key abilities involved in learning to read. The importance of different reading-related abilities tends to shift somewhat with grade level and stage of development in reading; the abilities needed to be a successful middle- or high-school reader are not exactly the same as those required for success in first grade. Many authorities also agree that certain qualities can help to make reading instruction more effective with most youngsters, although students with learning disabilities in reading may have some special instructional needs Click here to read this month's article on Components of Effective Reading Instruction Check out these LD OnLine articles about Reading Instruction

The contributions are edited for quality (content and clarity), use of contemporary terminology, and people-first language on an on-going basis (i.e., this site is always "under construction" for new additions and improvements). We suggest that you browse the topics of interest to you and follow up your own research by acquiring articles of interest in their full-length versions.

Table of Contents These links take you to entries for each of the areas shown. The articles that are summarized address a range of ages, grade levels, and categories of exceptionality that taken together may provide you with some helpful suggestions. Each entry is based on the results of one study reported in journals relevant to special education. For each item you will find information about (a) the targeted skill or behavior addressed by the research, (b) with whom the technique was studied, (c) a description of the teaching procedure, (d) a description of how the technique was evaluated, (e) the citation so that you can obtain the full document, and (f) the names and university affiliations of the people who created the entries.
