A primary text for use in high-prevalence courses in special
education programs. A critical look at four high-prevalence mild
disabilities as seen from several unique perspectives. Learners
with Mild Disabilities focuses on four high-prevalence disorders:
mild intellectual disabilities, learning disabilities,
emotional/behavioral disorders, and ADHD. The text also considers
the Autism Spectrum Disorders, such as HFA and Asperger's Syndrome,
in addition to other mild conditions such as communication
disorders. This text looks first at the concept of disability from
conventional categorical perspectives, and then shifts to focusing
on learners from the perspective of alternative, non-categorical
frameworks. It describes students with disabilities and related
conditions with respect to a variety of individual strengths and
needs, considering their cognitive, perceptual, language, academic
learning, and social/emotional characteristics. The reader is
encouraged to apply these conceptual frameworks through the
analysis of numerous vignettes and extended case studies that are
drawn from the experiences of real children and teachers throughout
the text. Using this non-categorical framework best prepares
special educators for the complex job of providing effective
services to the full and unique spectrum of students with mild
disabilities.
