Richard Lavoie leads a group of parents, educators, psychologists, and children through a series of exercises that cause Frustration, Anxiety, and Tension...feelings all too familiar to children with learning disabilities. By dramatizing the classroom experience so vividly, Lavoie lets us see the world through the eyes of a child. At the end of the workshop, participants discuss strategies for working more effectively with learning disabled children. http://www.ldonline.org/ld_store/lavoie_fatcity.html

Thomas E. Brown, Ph.D.
A New Understanding of Attention Deficit Disorder http://drthomasebrown.com/index.html

Dr. Thomas Brown, a clinical psychologist at Yale University School of Medicine, has developed a new model for understanding Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD/ADD). Based on recent scientific studies and 25 years of experience in listening to and treating children, adolescents and adults with ADD, this new approach recognizes that ADD involves far more than simply not paying attention.

ADD is a complex impairment in the development and functioning of the management system of the human brain. Sometimes ADD problems are obvious during early childhood, but often impairments are not noticeable until the child enters middle school or high school, especially if the student is bright and not hyperactive or disruptive in school. In some cases, a person's ADD impairments are not noticed until the challenges of college years or adulthood.
