Abstract
Students with learning disabilities (LD) experience problems recording notes from lectures, yet, lectures serve as one of the major avenues of learning content in secondary classes. Despite the importance of note-taking skills for students with LD, few if any studies have examined the differences in note-taking between students with LD and students with high and average achievement. In this study, the note-taking skills of middle school students with LD were compared to peers with average and high achievement. The results indicate differences in the number and type of notes recorded between students with LD and their peers and differences in test performance of lecture content.
