Key topics in the text include:

  • Strategies for teaching students with autism, ADHD, and various learning disabilities
  • Ways to develop students’ cognitive flexibility
  • How to help learners plan, organize and self-monitor in mathematics class
  • A new focus on mathematical strengths and learning abilities rather than on deficits and labels.
