Remediating Specific Academic Deficits: The Information Integration Approach.
Snart, Fern
Canadian Journal of Special Education, v6 n2 p190-99 1990
This paper outlines a model of cognitive functioning and remedial direction, based upon an information integration approach and work in neuropsychology. The approach, used primarily with low-achieving and learning-disabled students, utilizes "bridging tasks" which are paired with specific global cognitive tasks to promote generalization of cognitive strategy training to relevant academic areas.
