Abstract	This notebook is the 3rd volume of a three volume set containing strategies to provide an educational environment and assessment and counseling services for the learning disabled (LD) adolescent and adult. Part I focuses on a beneficial educational environment. Chapter 1, on the academic environment, addresses what is necessary for a supportive academic environment; what LDs are; descriptions of LDs; and how LDs show up in academic behavior. Chapter 2, on the emotional environment, discusses what is necessary for a safe emotional climate; common psychological issues of LD students; the successful teacher of LD adolescents and adults; and strategies to create a beneficial emotional climate. Chapter 3 looks at what is necessary for a favorable physical setting; the ideal physical environment; and modifications for less than ideal conditions. Part II, on assessment, describes design and use of the assessment and these six steps: sequence of steps in assessment; intake interview; in-depth learning difficulties interview; formal and informal testing (basic reading, reading comprehension, writing, spelling, math); using the assessment data; and ongoing assessment. Part III, on counseling services, covers initial counseling services and ongoing services. Appendixes include test copies suitable for reproduction; mini samples of transparencies; and names and addresses of publishers of 11 tests. (YLB)
