It details a process for ensuring that schools have a responsive instructional system and a classification model that contains common characteristics and evidence that define learning disabilities. It describes the response to intervention framework, with a focus on its use in early intervention, as well as the data collection that distinguishes between general difficulties and persistent learning disabilities. It outlines a combined approach that includes a student's response to instruction and intervention followed by evaluation to determine the nature of the learning disability. Chapters also detail challenges to learning disability identification, the importance of accurate diagnoses, case studies, the roles and responsibilities of each team member, and a complex learner profile model that includes executive functions, information processes, and academic skills.
