Definitions of learning disabilities from several sources reveal the heterogeneity of learning disabilities and the many terms used in different settings. Early warning signs of future educational challenges are listed. Case studies illustrate the presentation of learning disabilities of different types. Learning Disorders from DSM-5 are contrasted with Specific Learning Disabilities in the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act of 2004 (IDEA), which governs diagnosis and treatment in the school setting. The IDEA process of diagnosis and qualification is described for clinicians to clarify inconsistencies between clinical and school procedures and outcomes. Discontinuities between clinical and school assumptions, terms, and processes often lead to misunderstanding on the part of parents and clinicians.
