Strategies for Teaching Learners with Special Needs presents a comprehensive exploration of how to teach students with mild/high incidence disabilities. It focuses on instructional practices that can be used in diverse, inclusive educational environments. Learning disabilities, mild intellectual disabilities and emotional and behavioral disorders are all addressed. The text ensures pre- and in-service teachers receive current and applicable instruction for contemporary education.

The 12th Edition has further increased its emphasis on evidence-based practices. It also emphasizes the importance of explicit instruction. New chapters are included on written expression instruction, handwriting and more. There's also significantly expanded information on career and school transition considerations.
