Pokrywa David Pollak: Neurodiversity in Higher Education (PDF)
This edited collection offers screening, teaching and practical
support for specific learning differences in Higher Education

* Uses international case studies to explain how
psychologists identify, assess and support a range of specific
learning differences in students

* The higher education sector has come to terms with dyslexia,
but todayâ??s students are disclosing a range of learning
differences including dyspraxia, ADHD, Aspergerâ??s Syndrome
and dyscalculia

* Institutions in all major Western countries are required by law
to avoid disadvantaging students with special educational needs, so
staff must be up to date on how to recognise and support them

* Supported by an already popular website, Brain HE, with extra
materials and colour photographs
