Synopsis

“What I learn today, will reflect in my future learning” Taking the above idea in the mind, this is a humble attempt to identify those students who are lagging-behind in learning due to the learning difficulties impeding their present learning. Each individual is unique and have their own unique way of understanding and interpreting things. Learning Difficulties of students portray a sequence of events constructed by them based on their understanding and interpretation of the concepts. The achievement oriented educational processes are based upon commonalities rather than catering individualistic needs, so fails in blossoming individuality. Such educational processes project at-end evaluation in terms of scores wherein the actual learning of the student remains unidentified. Actual learning should highlight what a student knows. If a concept is not known to students or is not correctly conceptualized then why it is so: needs diagnosis. Each orientation may need rectification at the right time so that the future learning is not hampered. This book is for those teachers, administrations, policy makers who have genuine concern for students’ learning rather than the product aspect.
