Paul Neufeld is an associate professor in the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, where he teaches courses on reading and learning disabilities. His research is inspired by broad questions about how best to address the needs of students for whom school is often challenging—historically, schools have not supported these students well. More specifically, his research focuses on the reading development and instruction of students that struggle with print and on the historical emergence, practice, and ongoing development of the constructs of learning disabilities and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in school contexts.
