Learning Disabilities Research and Practice, v13 n2 p109-17 Spr 1998

A study examined the preferences of 211 middle school students (including 17 students with learning or behavior disabilities) for 17 homework adaptations. Lowest ratings were given for teachers giving students different assignments than those given to other students in the class. Preferences were not mediated by learning or behavioral disability.
