Dyslexia is a difficulty in learning to read despite traditional instruction, average intelligence, and an adequate opportunity to learn. It is an impairment in the brain's ability to translate images received from the eyes or ears into understandable language. Dyslexia does not result from vision or hearing problems. It is not due to mental retardation, brain damage , or a lack of intelligence. Dyslexia can go undetected in the early grades of schooling. The child can become frustrated by the difficulty in learning to read, and other problems can arise that disguise dyslexia. The child may show signs of depression and low self esteem. Behavior problems at home as well as at school are frequently seen. The child may become unmotivated and develop a dislike for school. The child's success in school may be jeopardized if the problem remains untreated. What causes dyslexia?

What is dyslexia? Dyslexia causes difficulties in learning to read, write and spell. Short-term memory, mathematics, concentration, personal organisation and sequencing may also be affected. Dyslexia usually arises from a weakness in the processing of language-based information. Biological in origin, it tends to run in families, but environmental factors also contribute. Dyslexia can occur at any level of intellectual ability. It is not the result of poor motivation, emotional disturbance, sensory impairment or lack of opportunities, but it may occur alongside any of these. The effects of dyslexia can be largely overcome by skilled specialist teaching and the use of compensatory strategies. The Dyslexia Institute 2002 What causes dyslexia? Dyslexia is now firmly established as a congenital and developmental condition. Its cause has not been fully confirmed but the effect is to create neurological anomalies in the brain. These anomalies bring about varying degrees of difficulty in learning when using words, and sometimes symbols. For detailed information link to the article 'Dyslexia - 100 years on.'

[text version] [print version] Home About us ... FAQs Dyslexia Style Guide. "Information is power" and is therefore key to empowering individuals to form a greater understanding of the world around them. The style in which this information is produced is key to facilitating comprehension for the reader. Presenting information in a format which makes it easily accessible is vital, if the information it contains is to be understood by everyone. It is important to understand why and how to make changes in order to increase readability. This Guide aims to explain how dyslexic people read and thus process information differently and how some simple changes to the way information is presented to them can make all the difference. 1. The skill of reading and comprehension Every individual has a different perception of what they see and reading is no exception. The shape and size of words can appear different to each reader. For some dyslexic readers there can be barriers to overcome. People often talk about 'tuning in' to text and 'focussing' on what they are looking at. This describes concentrating on content as well as the simple decoding exercise that occurs when we read. For many people, reading becomes an automatic skill that requires little conscious effort. When decoding occurs unconsciously, the reader is able to concentrate on comprehension. For some dyslexic readers decoding the words is not always an automatic or unconscious skill. Anyone with a history of reading difficulties may have to concentrate harder to interpret text and remember what they have read.

More information What causes dyslexia To be quite honest, nobody quite knows at the moment. There has been a real increase in the amount of research taking place, and a number of possibilities are beginning to emerge, but the waters are still fairly murky. The overall picture is that dyslexia can be caused in two ways: 1. by hearing problems at an early age; and

By Benetta Strydom Dyslexia: Beating the Back-to-Front Battle By Clare O'Donoghue Dyslexia: Is the Shoe Perhaps on the Wrong Foot? Reading is the most important skill that a child must acquire at school, because one must learn to read to be able to read to learn. The implication of this is that the child who is a poor reader will usually also be a poor learner. Unfortunately poor reading skills, and therefore poor learning skills, have become a reality for an alarming number of people.

Bibliography Reading from Scratch, (RfS/EL) a program of science-based teaching techniques, now makes possible grade level or higher reading. Because brain scans have finally pin-pointed the CAUSE of dyslexia, and if you remove the cause, the reading problem can be fixed. A good reader uses the left side of his brain when he reads. A dyslectic reader uses the right by mistake. Switch the reader over to the left where the programming is built in for reading and spelling. RfS/EL was designed to make that switch.

Dansk Svenska This is a site on learning disabilities. It consists of information and articles on deficits in reading, language and math. Dys means deficit , and is used in words like dyslexia (reading deficit), dysphasia (language deficit) and dyscalculia (math ability deficit). Living with deficits of the kind this site talks about means living with a learning handicap. UN's Standard Rules on the Equalization of Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities read: "States should recognize the principle of equal primary, secondary and tertiary educational opportunities for children, youth and adults with disabilities, in integrated settings. They should ensure that the education of persons with disabilities is an integral part of the educational system." If we are to fullfill these requirements, that most countries have ratified, we have to change our ways of teaching children with these kinds of disabilities, in order to offer them the same possibilities in regard to education and fullfilling adult lives as non-disabled children have. Use the links at the top of the page to retrieve information on the different learning disabilities.
