Children with sensory and cognitive difficulties can struggle to interact with their peers, are easily distracted, sensitive and have problems coping with change. It can be difficult to find the time and resources to give these children the extra encouragement they need. "Fuzzy Buzzy Groups for Children with Developmental and Sensory Processing Difficulties" has been devised to address the needs of children with sensory processing difficulties and development delay in mainstream educational environments. This easy-to-follow resource will enable professionals to carry out the programme in a relaxed and fun way.
Promoting Self-Determination in Students with Developmental Disabilities
"I really like the way Wehmeyer links science to practice, combining theory and research with practical instructional methods and strategies. This volume will be useful for anyone involved in teaching self-determination skills to students with disabilities. It also is an appropriate text for graduate students and an excellent resource for faculty members."--David W. Test, PhD, Department of Special Education and Child Development, University of North Carolina-Charlotte

"There is a real lack of texts in the area of developmental cognitive neuroscience and Mark Johnson’s book thus fills and important gap. It takes a decidedly neurocomputational perspective and provides a wonderful synthesis of fundamental issues and an overview of the state of empirical knowledge in this emerging field. It is definitely a clarion call for a new way of doing both developmental psychology and cognitive neuroscience." – Professor Bruce Pennington, University of Denver
