The impact of learning disabilities on adulthood: a review of the evidenced-based literature for research and practice in adult education.

abstract：:In part because learning strategies are often taught in isolated resource settings outside of the contexts in which students with learning disabilities are expected to apply this knowledge, generalization has been a significant challenge to educators. To address this problem, an instructional model is proposed for int...
