Providing scientific information to children with dyslexia.
Abstract
Researchers are making progress understanding the genetic and neurological causes of dyslexia. But with this information comes the challenge of making it practical and useful. One way to do this is to talk to children with dyslexia about what science is telling us about their brains. This paper reveals the difficulties students with dyslexia encounter in school and illustrates how learning about their brains and disabilities can change their perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs about themselves.
