It explores how the emphasis on English language instruction may contribute to poor academic outcomes for students from low-income backgrounds, particularly those who are first-generation learners or English language learners. The author examines the intersection of socio-economic factors, education policies, and language issues, offering a critical view on how the label of \"learning disability\" is applied in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the principles of Education For All, the book suggests that these labels may contribute to the marginalization of students who are academically struggling, particularly those from low- and middle-income families. Through qualitative research, the book highlights the disparities in support and outcomes for these students, shedding light on the need for a more inclusive approach to education in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Emergence of the Category of Learning Disability in the US and India\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Global Context for Inclusive Education\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Indian Context\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSocial Hierarchies in the School\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage and Learning in the Classroom\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAssessing for Learning Disabilities\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaya Kalyanpur\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor at the Department of Learning and Teaching at the University of San Diego, USA.
