Cases in Emotional and Behavioral Disorders of Children and Youth, 3rd Edition

by James M. Kauffman, Timothy J. Landrum

The third edition of Cases in Emotional and Behavioral Disorders of Children and Youth is a thought-provoking casebook that includes rich vignettes of what it is like to teach students with Emotional Behavioral Disorders.

Using carefully selected cases from popular literature, professional literature, and personal contacts, Kauffman and Landrum offer educators a glimpse into some of the problems of students with EBD and the common challenges for their teachers. Designed for use with Kauffman and Landrum’s Characteristics of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders text, each case includes a brief introduction and conversation-starting questions that launch readers into self-questioning, critical thinking and discussion.

New to This Edition

Six new cases appear in chapters 9, 12, 13, 14 and illustrate:

o Attention and Activity Disorders

o Anxiety and Related Disorders

o Depression and Suicidal Behavior

A reorganized structure streamlines its presentation of cases to correspond with the tenth edition of Characteristics of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders of Children and Youth.

Four new interviews and personal reflections appear in this casebook andtell the stories of teachers working with students with EBD.

An updated introduction into the use of cases reflects recent literature on how to learn and teach with case studies.
