Increasingly, students with learning disabilities are being educated in
the general education setting by general education teachers. This trend
benefit all students. This article reviews of the literature from 1986 to
2002 in order to identify and examine academic interventions for mid-
dle and high school students with learning disabilities that can be
applied to various subject areas. The practices that appeared to be most
effective were categorized under the following headings: (a) mnemonic
instruction, (b) graphic organizers, (c) guided notes, (d) class wide peer
tutoring, (e) coached elaboration, and (f) inquiry teaching.
