(Ebook) Supporting Disorders of Learning and Co-ordination; Effective Provision for Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, and Dyspraxia; Third Edition by Michael Farrell ISBN 9781003177975, 1003177972

This revised and updated third edition, previously titled The Effective
Teacher’s Guide to Dyslexia and Other Learning Difficulties (Learning Disabilities),
unravels the complexity of specific learning difficulties in an
accessible and user-friendly way.
Each chapter provides key information about the disorder in question,
giving a clear definition before discussing prevalence, causal factors, identification,
and assessment and provision. Implications for the curriculum and
related assessment, pedagogy, resources, therapy/care, and school and
classroom organisation are explained, allowing providers to reflect and
adapt their practice in response to the needs of the individual. The book
informs effective provision, with the aim of encouraging the best achievement
and personal and social development for children and young people.
The book authoritatively and lucidly addresses issues associated with
impairment in reading/dyslexia,
impairment in written expression/dysgraphia,
impairment in mathematics/dyscalculia, and
developmental co-ordination disorder/dyspraxia.
Recognising the importance and the challenge of multi-professional
working, the book relates provision to the roles of parents and carers
alongside that of the practitioner. Underpinned by research and widely
held professional judgement, this will prove a practical, readable, and
inspiring resource for professionals in the UK, US, and elsewhere including
teachers, therapists, psychologists, and students entering these professions.
