ABSTRACT

This book supports inclusive practice by examining learning difficulties within the context of how humans learn and how teaching can create or prevent problems. It includes:

  • a detailed look at different perspectives on human learning
  • practical teaching approaches grounded in sound theory
  • information on moderate to sever difficulties in literacy and numeracy.

This is an essential reference for SENCOs, staff working as part of a support unit or in special schools, LEA advisers, teachers and TAs.
