The report assesses activities and programs of the Calgary Learning Centre, a research-demonstration approach serving learning disabled students in Calgary, Canada. Four major areas of concern are addressed: (1) diagnostic and assessment tests and/or other techniques, (2) remedial learning programs, (3) other associated programs including parent groups and social skills groups, and (4) centre organization. Each of the centre's major thrusts are examined in separate chapters covering the following areas (sample subtopics in parentheses): the research program (studies of the instrumental enrichment parent training program, cognitive behavior modification and listening skills, auditory discrimination in depth, mathematics skills group, communications skills group, orienteering, and adolescent wilderness challenge program); the service program (evaluation of five major components--referral, initial interview, assessment, individual and group treatment programs, and followup); and public and professional education (learning disability resource library, and professional education credit and noncredit courses). Results of a questionnaire on the Learning Centre Model, including general agreement on the insufficient funding level, are cited. A concluding section focuses on three additional aspects: the multimandate of teaching, research-demonstration, and service; the multidisciplinary nature of the Centre, and the consortium structure.
