Psychological and educational theory translated to intervention practice

I recently stumbled on an interesting publication (Theory into Practice) published by Ohio State University that produces brief overview articles focused on research-based interventions for individuals with learning problems. Below are sample articles from the recent issue. Looks like a nice little journal with applied implications. Double click on images to enlarge.

Atkins MR/ID Death Penalty Court Decision: Bourgeous (2011,TX)

A recent Atkins case is the Alfred Bourgeois matter out of the U.S District Court, Southern District of Texas. The opinion is VERY large. 225 pages long. I received it in 6 separate PDF files. I have not read one page of the decision. It looks to have been a very interest proceeding with 663 filings, several days of hearings and multiple witnesses. I have posted it as a single ZIP file...that is over 19 MB in size. So, you have to download the .zip file and then unzip it on your computer if you want to read all 6 parts.
