Richardson, Virginia; Anders, Patricia L.
Learning Disability Quarterly, v21 n1 p85-97 Win 1998
Three themes are identified in response to several papers about teachers' cognition and instructional improvement of students with learning disabilities: (1) the teacher's dilemma between attention to the individual or the group; (2) the content of the curriculum and perspectives on knowledge and knowing; and (3) staff development. Researchers are urged to become more hermeneutic and appreciate the fact that change takes time. (DB)
