LD Identification
In the opening article to this section, Jack Fletcher of the University of Houston offers insights into how changes in IDEA 2004 affect the accuracy and utility of diagnostic decision making in the area of LD. Dr. Fletcher argues that RTI models are worth the effort required for implementation, as they advance identification of and intervention for learning disabilities by linking these two domains. His article reviews the historical definitions of LD and articulates the scientific basis for the changes in identification and intervention introduced by IDEA 2004.
