Book Description
Any mental condition which causes complications in processing or comprehending information is known as a learning disability. It can be caused due to various factors. Individuals who suffer from learning disabilities find it difficult to execute tasks if they are taught using conventional methods. Classroom adjustments and usage of special equipment are some of the ways in which they can be managed. Some of the individuals who suffer from learning disabilities can exhibit challenging behavior. The abnormal behaviors of considerable frequency, duration or intensity which endanger the safety of the person or the people around are known as challenging behaviors. Appropriately managing these challenging behaviors and emotions of students is one of the focus areas of classroom management plans. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of classroom management with respect to learning disabilities and challenging behaviors. It is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further. Those with an interest in this field would find this book helpful.

Book Description
"This third edition shows teachers and specialists, such as school psychologists and speech-language pathologists, how to support children in Grades K-12 with learning disabilities and behavioral challenges in the era of high-stakes testing and accountability. An innovative framework is included to help professionals identify areas of strength and weakness and to determine the types of educational and behavioral interventions needed and to develop meaningful, realistic educational goals.

The reliable, up-to-date research makes this an essential textbook for any course focused on learning disabilities and behavior problems, and the practical advice and guidelines will be a lifeline to in-service teachers year after year. The new edition explains the same philosophy and model for intervention, but it also includes information on multi-tiered systems of support, positive behavior interventions and supports, and social-emotional learning. This new edition has a new third author, Katie Eklund, who will bring a fresh energy to the author team.

Book Description
This is a timely book. The question of how to help people with challenging behaviour -and how to design and manage services so that staff, families and users feel that what should be done is being done - is at the top of the agenda. Failure to deal com petently with the issue results in disaffection, poor quality ser vices and a less than optimal quality of life for service users. Moreover, the credibility of services for all people with learning disabilities is intimately connected with how we cope with chal lenging behaviour, a point made recently by a Department of Health Working Group chaired by Jim Mansell (Department of Health, 1993). The book is welcome because it draws together what is known about the important questions from a British perspective, although, of course, most of the underlying issues have world wide relevance. The contributors, while all having a good deal of experience and authority, do not put forward simple portrayals of the problems, nor glib solutions, and this is one of the book's major strengths. Clarity in the field of challenging behaviour is sometimes elu sive. What is presented here forces the reader to confront argu ments in a rational and logical fashion.
