An Excellent Scholarly Integration of Evidence-Based Assessment, What the Brain Does as it Learns to Read, and How to Teach Reading

Response to intervention (RTI) is a phrase that has captivated a national movement, redefined educational policy, and, most importantly, has called for public schools to make a renewed commitment toward using scientifically based instructional techniques as the foundation for sound educational practice. Cognitive neuropsychology has also emerged as a leading discipline in forging the inevitable alliance between science and education. Integrating RTI With Cognitive Neuropsychology: A Scientific Approach to Reading represents the natural symbiosis between RTI and the brain–behavioral principles of cognitive neuropsychology to assist all educators in better diagnosing and remediating reading disorders in children. Perfect resource for psychologists, school psychologists, learning specialists, special ed teachers, and reading specialists.
