It will benefit students who come to the classroom situation demonstrating deficiencies or experiencing problems in acquiring skills in basic reading, writing and mathematics. Through the techniques in this manual, this group of different learners, who seem unable to learn, and are often viewed as academic failures, will find new success. Many of these students are bright, intelligent, creative individuals. They are the students whose intelligence is of a non-verbal variety. Their kind of intelligence usually is not acknowledged nor measured through standardized intelligence tests which reflect the values of the verbal, abstract, sequential academic world. The thinking and information processing of these students is simultaneous or holistic. They are deductive, concrete, visual, creative, and have good spatial abilities. They tend to be non-verbal problem solvers who are the exceptional chess player, the knowledgeable mechanic, or the successful general who knows exactly where to place the troops in order to win the war.
