The document discusses learning disabilities and how they affect students. It describes some common characteristics of students with learning disabilities like difficulty following instructions, trouble remembering information, and challenges with reading, writing, and math. It also discusses the information processing model and how sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory can impact students with learning disabilities. Specifically, issues with sensory memory can make it hard to concentrate or understand sentences, short-term memory limitations may restrict comprehension and number recall, and deficits in long-term memory could hamper the ability to learn from experiences and absorb new information.
