Misunderstood Minds
This  companion site to a PBS special on learning disabilities offers a wealth of information. First, the Attention section explains Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, how to identify it, and how to help children who suffer from it. Then sections on reading, writing, and mathematics explain how the brain processes each subject and outlines the specific problems some children have with them. You can even get a first-hand taste of what children with learning disabilities experience, such as visual and auditory distractions, through Flash examples. The site abounds with scientific and educational resources and first-person accounts that help parents, teachers, students, and anyone interested in learning more about this complex issue.
