For learning handicapped children with impaired language associations, patterns, and expressions, this paper summarizes relevant linguistic research and instructional strategies. Linguistic auditory memory pattern exercises and examples are then presented as an integrated multisensory approach which has been found useful by special educators.…

Eleven types of learning disabilities are listed along with observable classroom behavior and group and individual teaching techniques for each type of disability. Among disability types considered are visual-motor channel disability, auditory decoding process disability, auditory vocal automatic disability, and visual motor sequencing. (CL)

As handicapped children are mainstreamed, regular classroom teachers must become more skilled in identifying and remediating language deficiencies. Available from: Allen Raymond, Inc., P.O. Box 1223, Darien, Connecticut 06820. (GW)

A study compared the effectiveness of the multisensory and auditory teaching methods on the promotion of memory among adults with learning problems. Subjects were 10 adult learners with learning problems, aged 19-31, from an adult basic education program in a large urban area. Two lists of nouns were prepared, each containing 10 words. The lists…

Seven students (ages 10-13) with learning disabilities were introduced to the write-say method, which provides immediate visual and auditory feedback following the administration of a daily spelling test. Compared to studying words on one's own, the write-say method significantly enhanced subjects' spelling accuracy in a brief period of time.…

The article reviews 22 studies concerned with learning disabled children under 10 years old in which there was a clear attempt to compare auditory and visual modality preferenes to visual and/or auditory methods of teaching words or other written verbal symbols. (PHR)

The booklet outlines ways to help children with learning disabilities in specific subject areas. Characteristic behavior and remedial exercises are listed for seven areas of auditory problems: auditory reception, auditory association, auditory discrimination, auditory figure ground, auditory closure and sound blending, auditory memory, and grammar…

The practicum's goal was to improve the listening skills, oral reading skills, and motivation toward oral reading of six learning-disabled third-grade students with auditory deficits. An intervention plan incorporated directed lessons, filmstrips, tapes, prepractice reading sessions, motivational techniques, and various auditory-visual activities.…

Designed for the teacher in training as well as the classroom teacher, the text presents step-by-step remedial techniques for developmental training of the slow learner or the child with learning disabilities. Presented are activities, instructional materials, and teaching techniques for grades 1 through 8. Developmental areas included are…

The monograph discusses the psycho-physiological operations for processing of auditory information, the structure and function of the ear, the development of auditory processes from fetal responses through discrimination, language comprehension, auditory memory, and auditory processes related to written language. Disorders of auditory learning…
