suggesting strategies for general organisation and for particular
aspects of study
- outline how to get the best personally and academically from
higher education
- give practical advice on setting up and using support
facilities (both human and technological)
- be an accessible text for mainstream lecturers and tutors who
need to be aware of the implications of the Disability
Discrimination Act.
New chapters include 'Dyslexia plus', giving information on
dyspraxia, attention disorders, Asperger's syndrome, and the more
controversial 'dyscalculia'. 'Out of College and into Work' gives
advice for students on the challenges they face after
graduation.
